    Do you get that just running the bios on it's own? (no game image)

    The other reason could just be that you just don't have Visual C++ 2010 and DirectX 9c Runtimes installed that are both required (32bit/x86 versions as the software using those is 32bit)

    dcemu is a good alternative and runs more games anyway

    I don't know what maximus arcade is so couldn't tell you :/

    I presume it's some form of front end if it is a good front end it should be able customize it to run anything, to be honest for this sort of emulator I would not use a front end at all though

    every computer I have used NullDC on, it just works after making sure the 2 above are installed (reset may be needed)

    I was not saying it did or did not have anything to do with it crashing.

    Nothing to "but" about

    Double check and make sure the C++ drivers are installed make sure they are the 32bit/x86 ones not the x64 bit ones and reset between installs

    Also try running the normal version instead of the No Trace version

    P.S. there is no 1.0.6 version 1.0.4 was the last version ever done but is up to build 1.0.4 r150 but the last revision officially built was 1.0.4 r136 but they have source code up to r150 but that is still version 1.0.4.

    P.S. It would be nice to see the dos log window so I can see what it crashes out on. It may just be a bad bios image you are trying to use, that is something that is very easy to fix

    Did you try running the NullDC with no games also

    From the logs it looks like a game issue rather than an emulator issue

    Also what game are you trying to run?

    I'm sure they can I posted compat notes for NullDC myself a while back so take a look

    Off to work in a min so not got time to look just now

    The only thing I can think of is to try all the video plugins change it exit the the emu restart it check the plugin has changed try booting it again

    EDIT

    Direct3D HAL is all XP can use the other video plugin is for Vista up over using Direct X 11 for Direct 3D/D3D and you seem to already be using that.

    Not sure if this works with XP at all I have only used NullDC on Vista and Windows7

    You could try an older version or try demul that can emulate a stuff NullDC can't
