Application crash with error R6034 - after installing windows upda

[Nitish]

Hi,

After installing windows updates last week some of my progs are crashing
with same error msg R6034.

Here is what happened:

1. Install XP SP3 via automatic windows updates
2. Restart. Ok.
3. Install some more updates.
4. Restart. Problem! Getting R6034 on some apps.

I'm sorry i cannot post the screen shots. I have a stable PC and I develop
on VS2005 and SQL2005. Adobe reader v8.1.2 is also crashing!!! A repair +
uninstall and reinstall does not solve my problem.

This is very urgent plz help.

Can you send the exact Verbatim of the error message in your next post if
the info in the above didn't help. Also have a look in the event Viewer for
more help on the causer.

Hi,
thanks for the reply. I have alreday read the articles you are pointing me
to. They do not apply to me because I didi not build this app and it has been
running perfectly since it was installed on my machine which I think was back
in April. I tried the compatibility test without any positive result. Here
are the messages I get:

1. >>>>>>>>>>>>

Well, what I gathered on the net is that the prob may be due to msvcr80.dll
file. Some even suggest I comes from .Net Framework 1.1 which must be
reinstalled. I do not want to play around with dll files on my development
machine. Please provide a good solution anyone.

Hi,

Thanks for your help. I checked for a new version of Adobe Reader - which I
had thought was very unlikely - and v9 has been released! This solved my
problem.

Thanks again.
