The error was something like 0x8 which means an API win32 error.

&lt;pedantic<
No it doesn't.  The 0x8 simply means that it was an error.  It's only a Win32 error if the number begins 0x8007, 0x8008 or 0x8000.  In particular, if it begins 0x8004, then it's an emplode error.
&lt;/pedantic<

Moreover, the rest of the numbers (and a complete description of the error message) are helpful when attempting to diagnose the problem.  We don't come up with these complicated numbers/messages for fun, you know .

However, it sounds like you might have the problem mentioned in the FAQ.
