While it is pretty hard to say what exactly is the problem in your case due to the lack of details, I would try to guess that the likely reason is MSVC runtime incompatibility.
One of the worst surprises of Microsoft Windows is that it has several C runtime libraries *incompatible* with each other. Thus if you compile a library against one runtime (say, single-threaded runtime) and then link it to an application compiled against another runtime (say, multi-threaded dll runtime) then the application has a very good chance of crashing as soon as it tries to open file, free memory allocated in the library (or vice versa), etc. Thus, it is always a good idea to make sure that all your libraries and application use *exactly* the same MSVC runtime. If it is not the case, MSVC linker prints an innocent looking warning LNK4098 which is usually mistakenly ignored by most of the people.
