If you overwrite memory that isn't in use at that moment, nothing bad will happen. Your program will continue to run and may crash minutes or even hour later. But when the error occurs, the real problem is somewhere in the past. My suggestion - apart from what other people have said - is to load the application into VICE, but don't start it. Then check the map file and write protect in VICE the address spaces of all segments that should not be written to: * LOADADDR * EXEHDR * STARTUP * INIT * CODE * RODATA And maybe also the kernal ROM space. Then run your program again. With some luck, VICE will stop the program when it overwrites code memory and you have the exact location of the code causing the problem. I've found some really nasty memory corruption bugs in Elite this way.
