Mirakagi and FU4WM error 'Exception c0000005' (Napster messed up Mirakagi for me)

[scoobysnax]

I use Ruckus to get new music, then I use mirakagi so I can transfer the music to my Zune. I installed Napster on Monday, and I was going to use the 7 day trial to get a certain CD I couldn't find anywhere else. I downloaded the CD, but now Mirakagi doesn't work. When I use Mirakagi and FU4WM, I get a 'Exception c0000005' error.

I don't know exactly how Napster messed up my system, but I think it had something to do with a file in the Napster program called "WMP_Update.wma" I tried to do a system restore to before I installed Napster, and nothing happened. Does anybody know how i can get Mirakagi working again?

I also tried using drmdbg, but I don't know how to use it really. If anybody could point me to a tutorial and/or a link to drm2wmv, that would be great.

btw, nice to be here.

DRM removal software is intended to be used on legally purchased files. Please do not abuse rental licenses.

What is your IBX version? Mirakagi doesn't work with IBX 11.6000.7000 or later.

Most probably you have to downgrade your WMP (however all your licenses will be deleted so make sure you can restore them). Uninstall anything related to Napster and any WMP upgrades it forced.

You can also install a fresh copy of Windows XP onto virtual machine.

Please use search to find more details.


As for drm2wmv, you may read about another concole application freeme2. It should help you to understand how to work with CLI apps.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm using Windows vista. And I pay for my Ruckus files.

I forgot to mention that I'm running Vista Home Premium.

How do I find the IBX on Vista? I think Napster must have updated the IBX.

And I need to know how to use DRMDBG for Freeme2 to work right? It can't find the key.

The hidden DRM folder can be usually found at
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows

Also when using mirakagi with non-supported IBX, you get the error "IBX 11.####.####" is not supported.

Only the latest version of drmdbg works on Vista.

iN this folder: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DRM, I have a registry file called 'DRMv1', and a .txt file called 'migration' I don't see any IndivBox file.

When I use it drmdbg, nothing happens, it opens WMP and plays the song. Nothing else happens. Am I doing something wrong?

Have you tried to open the 'DRMv1' file with a text editor?

When the song is played, usually you can see something in the drmdbg window. Here is an example:
