Lee,

In case this is useful... I've just found this post using Google. The event log is similar to yours and occurred with a well known game a user was trying to run.

The problem turned out to be antivirus software and the solution was to put an exception for the startup exe file into the antivirus software. For example, in my antivirus software, I have a section called "Exclusions" and I've added full paths for Realband and BIAB (as shown below).



I've read that you've tried starting the program with your antivirus software disabled but, like Matt, I wonder if maybe a component of it is always in memory.

Also, did you try (i) deactivating the User Account Control and (ii) running in XP compatibility that I mentioned in an earlier post?

Regards,
Noel

P.S. Re User Account Control - it's been known to cause issues periodically and it would be good to rule it out as being the culprit for your problem.
