SUMMARY
=======

If you type the letter "n" (without the quotes) in the Topic Search box in the
Movie Still section of the Gallery, the following error message is generated:

  MVIEWER2 caused a General Protection Fault in module CNMNIA94.DLL

The above error message may also occur when you enter Gallery or try to change
any of the filters in the Movie Contents. (See the "More Information" section in
this article for additional information.)

MORE INFORMATION
================

When you enter the Gallery or try to change filters in the Movie Contents, the
above error message may occur if the incorrect version of the CTL3D.DLL is on
the system.

Verify that the following file is in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory:

  CTL3D.DLL   14416   3/23/93

If a different CTL3D.DLL is listed in the WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory, rename the
current file and copy the CTL3D.DLL from the VIEWER directory on the Cinemania
1994 CD-ROM.

WORKAROUND
==========

To search for movie stills starting with the letter n:

1. From the toolbar, choose Gallery.

2. From the Remote interface, select All Media.

3. Type "n" (without the quotation marks) to search for titles beginning with
  the letter n.

4. From the Remote interface, select Movie Stills.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Cinemania 1994. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
