I've been at this problem for an hour and a half now; for some reason when debugging, visual studio throws an exception "write access violation" at line 73 and the window is unresponsive :"(


Edited by Nates3 on Reason: more info again
You made a typo on line 64 making it an infinite loop, take a closer look at what you wrote :)
LOL thank you! It literally took me a few seconds to see what went wrong even with your comment, don't code at 3AM!
I first messed with VirtualAlloc for 30 minutes, then i messed with the pointers, then I spent 30 minutes looking at code on google, the last thing I did was mess around in the VS memory tab and I took the start and end of the BitmapMemory and got a size of 4,104,208 when the size was 4,101,120, then I saw your comment. I was on the right path, I almost beat you to it lol.
