unknown software exception (0xc000000d)..at location...

[Cooldude]

When i try to launch a game (battleground europe) i get the error
above just as the game spashscreen shows up.. Could anyone maybe tell
me what could be causing it.. or point me in the right direction on
where to find a solution?

Thanks in advance

And i am running a fujitsu siemens laptop with windows XP home SP2..
The game used to run fine.. but then all of a sudden it stoped.

Providing the error code verbatim may help someone help you.

One thing I'd take a look at is to see what programs are running in the
background and see if one of them is causing the problem. You could use
msconfig.exe to do a selective startup and then run the game and see what
happens. I'd also do a full scan with up to date spyware and AV programs.

Please post a complete copy of the Stop Error report.

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by
allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on
the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced,
Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before
Automatically Restart.

Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure until you have
resolved the problem. Check for variants of the Stop Error message.

An alternative is to keep pressing the F8 key during StartUp and select
option - Disable automatic restart on system failure.

Hope this helps.
