Becker Software not working

    I’ve been hammering through MCQ’s using Becker for about 2 hours and out of nowhere I receive an error message that says:

    Access Violation at address 0086352F in Module ‘BPSelfStudy.exe’ Read of address 0000000000

    I tried a fresh restart and re-opening and this same error pops up continuously – the only way to make it go away is to go into the Task Manager and End Task.

    Has anyone else experienced this? I have access to the software through the end of 2014 so this should not be the issue. I tried to log-in to the my online account to continue studying (https://online.becker.com/) and noticed that their site is down for maintenance. This shouldn’t have an effect on the software I downloaded to my computer though right?

    the site says you should be able to use your desktop (downloaded) versions, but that is obviously not the case. I only have 7 minutes left on my A4 lecture and “poof” gone.

    Mine is down, too. Both the online site and the offline software are down (b/c it syncs to their server).

    I just called Becker tech support and they told me their server is down and they would email me when it's back up. Haven't they heard of redundancy? I can't believe they wouldn't have redundant/backup servers to provide continuous access if one of their servers go down.

    Going old school and reading the book in the meantime. As if AUD wasn't boring enough!

    In all seriousness, I thought this was a lot worse than it actually is so thankfully it's not.

    If this was intentional maintenance that is ridiculous to plan it on a weekend…
