Windows 7 won't shut down cleanly when Live Messenger o
Hi everyone. This is my first post here. After Google failed me I tried getting help on the Microsoft Forum but the only advice I received was to try reinstalling, which I had already done.
I wasn't sure if this is the right forum for this. If not please let me know so I can correct the problem.
I am able to consistently and reliably recreate this problem. It happens more sporadically with other programs as well.
Windows 7 won't shut down or restart cleanly when Live Messenger or Yahoo Messenger are running. I installed Windows 7 on my home built Quad Core with 4GB RAM. It will reboot fine if Live Messenger and Yahoo Messenger are shut down but if they are open I get an "Application Error" dialog (see below) and have to confirm multiple times my desire to shut down. If I shut down one or the other application I still get an error from the one that is open.
I have reverted to a previous image of the hard drive and reinstalled the programs testing each one individually. I still have the problem.
msnmsgr.exe - Application Error
The instruction at 0x6fb151ds referenced memory at 0x6fb151d3. the memory could not be written. Click OK to terminate the program.
YahooMessenger.exe - Application Error
The instruction at 0x6fb151ds referenced memory at 0x6fb151d3. the memory could not be written. Click OK to terminate the program.
