#157 EAC error
I am at a loss right now. Try to set up EAC with current flac version. When I test it I get a dialog box for an error that wants to send to MS. I click don't send and then the compression results pop up with a return code 3221225501. I am running this on a computer that has XP SP3. I thought that XP might not be allowing flac to run, so I put it into the exemptions. If I just launched flac from the folder it is in I was getting a dialog box warning about unknown software but I selected the "do not show this again" box and that took care of that. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
Try FLAC 1.3.1 from http://www.rarewares.org/lossless.php . Does it work for you?

Sorry, that did not work. Thanks anyhow. I had my doubts. I have been playing with this all day. What I have basically come to the conclusion is that there is an issue with XP itself. I have tried running sysinternals process explorer on it and that won't even run. I just keep getting a message that a problem was encountered and asked about sending MS the failure information which is the same thing that happens when the flac compressor tries to run. So I believe therein lies the problem. Thanks for your suggestion anyways.
What processor do you use?
I have an AMD K5 processor 1200 MHz. on a ECS K7S5A with a SiS 735 chipset. Since you are asking I am assuming you think that this might be the issue. I have basically been just using this computer to run music via Mediamonkey to my home stereo but now I wanted to use it for ripping cds to flac. If this is the issue, hopefully there is some way around this. Thanks.

P.S. I'm sure that your CPU is Athlon or Duron, not K5.

You are right, it is an Athlon proccessor. My mind was hung up with a different computer. The file you sent me to worked just fine. When I tested the encoder it ran without errors. Going to do a test rip now, but I am confident this work judging by this results. Thank you so much.
Everything went great with the rip. Thanks alot. I really appreciate your help. You deserve a bowl of your favorite ice cream! (hopefully you are not lactose intolerant)

also hanging on this issue with the Athlon XP processor in my "CD ripping PC" ...
(https://sourceforge.net/p/flac/bugs/437/)
I know that I can download a build that's without SSE2 support from the above mentioned link... But I don't want to use software from sources I don't trust, so I want to build my own flac.exe without SSE2 support...
I got VIsual Studio 2015 on another notebook and already was able to build flac.exe, but with SSE2 support... Maybe anybody could give me a hint how to disable SSE/SSE2 when I build with VS2015... to bad that it's not as easy like "--disable-sse" on GNU/Linux platform :-/
1) Select Release/Win32 configuration.
2) Select all projects in the FLAC solution -> right click -> Properties
3) Open C/C++ -> Code Generation page
4) Set "Enable Enhanced Instruction Set" to "No enhanced instructions"
5) Don't forget to set Platform Toolset to v140_xp is you want to use this build on WinXP.
I have a Pentium III and I followed this guide. It works, but when I want to add cover image to file gives me an error: "ERROR: (--picture) error opening picture file"
I have an another version from here (It works fully) but I want to build myself.

Thanks, works :-)
@lvqcl And for the ones using MinGW, do you know what are the compilation steps to follow ?
Any help will be much appreciated.

If you use FLAC 1.3.2 then you only need to add --disable-sse option when you call ./configure.
Thank you for your answer :-)
Yes, i used 1.3.2 version.
I tried but i'm not sure it keep SSE set while discarding the SSE2 instructions set ?
By the way, i tried to build but at the end when i run it, it say that libFLAC-8.dll is not found.
For the newbie that i'm, it's seem that it make a dynamic build ? I tried with --enable-static but it didn't make any difference.
Any idea ?

Try:
./configure --enable-static --disable-shared --disable-sse
That's worked, thx :-)
I didn't know it wasn't "automatic" and that i need to set the shared option as well.
But yet, i'm not able to include libogg, as when i compiile with
--with-ogg=/usr/local, and run the FLAC.exe file i get a "libogg-0.dll is not found" message.One more idea ? :-)

Try
./configure --enable-static --disable-shared
for libogg as well.
Yeaaah... it worked :-D
Thank you very much for your help and knowledge sharing ;-)
Have a nice evening.
