I've tried several different versions of Dependency Walker, at the suggestion of some other developers, and the latest version shows that I am missing IESHIMS.dll and GRPSVC.dll (these two seems to be well-known bugs in Depends.exe), and that I have missing symbols in COMCTR元2.dll and IEFRAME.dll. I can't reproduce as it is completely random, so I don't even know where to start troubleshooting. We are using kernel32, user32, and winmm, for various file system and sound functions. In terms of API calls, I don't see any from ntdll.dll.

In the Windows Application event log, when this happens, there is an Event ID 1000 faulting a seemingly random module - so far, either ntdll.dll or lpk.dll. Everything is encapsulated in a single box. There is no networking enabled on the kiosks no network drivers, and hence no connections to remote databases. The database components exist to interact with an Access database used for bookkeeping, and the Resizer XT was inserted to move this game more easily from its original 800圆00 resolution to 1920x1080. Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6)Īs you can see, these are pretty straightforward, Microsoft-standard tools, for the most part. Visual Basic runtime objects and procedures The app itself is purposely simple in terms of using external components and API calls. We run this app in Windows 2000 compatibility mode (this was its original OS), with visual themes disabled, and as an administrator. This game can run fine for days on end until this message appears, or within a matter of hours. Every once in a while, the app crashes, with a generic 'program.exe has stopped responding' message box.

The application is a game written in VB6 and is running on Windows 7 64-bit. I have a completely random error popping up on a particular piece of software out in the field.
