hi mike, I've had some grief of my own with the new DevEx installer (if you buy more products, you have to uninstall everything for it to re-read your online registration info.. hey thanks!), but your error sounds more like a standard memory hardware fault. 77F5793D is where the error is occuring, it is incorrectly referencing 0ADBE310 (should be a different value) and tripping the AV. One of my Windows systems throws these regularly when addressing the highest section of RAM, regardless of which application does the addressing. the DevEx libraries may be pretty, but we pay the price in bigger footprints for both the executables and the compiles, which load some module high enough to cause bad references though uncaught memory errors (Windows "trusts" out-of-segment calls).
Part of the deal here is that Windows is not as picky about memory errors as some other OS (*koff*Linux*koff*), thus "running on more hardware" but also more prone to suffering from same hardware. You might try downloading, burning the ISO, and running MemTest86: http://www.memtest86.com/ an *IX utility that runs on practically any x86 board and which verifies RAM performance and stability. Keep in mind that simpler tests may not find the kinds of errors that affect the highest memory registers (more 1's = more heat and higher latency requirements). You might also try increasing the latencies of your RAM through your BIOS setup, or consider obtaining ECC/Registered RAM devices, or cooling your northbridge, the other likely culprit for these kinds of errors. by running MemTest86 you can either confirm or eliminate hardware issues as the source of these errors. and if it's not a hardware error, try recompiling your DevEx packages, if you bought the source. the bad reference may have crept in during the compile. there's an option to (re)build the packages in the installer.
