Initialisation Error

by zhaff2004 Jul 6, 2009 7:30AM PDT

Sup guys, I am having a problem with running a few programs here.. About 3 weeks back, my Daemon tools, Catalyst control centre and google chrome all stopped working. The error message I received was as follows:

Google Chrome: The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click OK to terminate the application.

CLI.exe: Same as Google Chrome, except the error 'code' was 0xc000007b.

Daemon Tools: Same as Google Chrome

I am running Visa SP1 on an Acer Travelmate 5720G. My machine is virus free and I haven't done anything weird on/to it.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Try memtest86+

Try running memtest86+ on it overnight, and see what comes up. If you get ANY errors, and the system is under warranty, call up Acer and tell them you need a new memory module or modules. Otherwise, start pricing compatible memory modules with online and local stores.

You should also tell how you reached the conclusion that your system is free of viruses and malware, and why you have neglected to update to SP2.
