IDA cannot disassemble...
Monday, 04-Jan-99 06:35:03

I'm trying to crack a program. It is Win32 and I'm running Win95 and IDA 3.75

If i accept default options for IDA load file then IDA throws warning "Unknown Fixup type 0xf000 is ignored"

OKing that then IDA throws error "File read error at ... (maybe bad PE structure)..." and just can't get passed this error.

I've tried loading as binary and MS-DOS EXE but can't make much sense of the result.

I do know that the exe in question is encrypted/packed(?) - ie when it starts it decrpts/unpacks/modifies it self.

Can IDA handle these exe's? Any help appreciated.
