0xC0000005 is the exception code for an access violation. This means that either code in your application, or APIs that your application calls are attempting to access memory that does not belong to your process.<br><br>Common causes for this sort of thing are attempting to dereference a NULL pointer, or possibly a pointer that was never initialized to a valid memory address. You'll also run into this if you read or write beyond the bounds of a buffer or array.<br><br>In any case, run the offending application under the debugger and when it fails, look at a Call Stack.<br><br>
