instruction at "0x73dd11c7" referenced memory

[deb]

After installing visual studio & sql 2005 I was getting a visual studio debug

error in my scanner program (paperport) so I uninstalled sql & visual studio

and now when I run my scanner program I get this

instruction at "0x73dd11c7 referenced memory at 0x00000004. The memory could

not be read. I am running xp pro sp3 - my scanner worked fine until this

This is an easy one ! You simply restore your boot-drive / Windows platform

to the state it was in before you made, potentially disastrous, major

software changes to it, such as installing application software that's

destined to cause problems.

So, because you were about to make changes that could damage your Windows

platform, and before making such changes you obviosuly made a full

boot-drive backup using software such as Norton Ghost, or Acronis TrueImage

etc. ..and THEN you attempt to install that program that could cause massive

problems - and if it does - ...you simply restore the drive to how it was

before that rogue application software went on to b****r up your Windows

platform !

I had the same problem using Visual C++ 6.0. The error appears when I try to

open files (except when trying to open Workspaces).
