Description

The ROM opens just fine, but just before it is about to display the results, Ares64 crashes. This doesn't happen on upstream.

Repo: https://github.com/lemmy-64/n64-systemtest

Debugging logs show access violation (segfault probably?)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash with the n64-systemtest ROM on Ares64, just before it displays the results, and compare the behavior with upstream. Use the reported debugging logs to locate the access violation; done means the test reaches its results without crashing in Ares64.
