is it a hardware or software issue

It's a memory issue.
Exception code: 0xc0000005 is a memory exemption which means that a application is corrupting and trying to use memory that is already assigned. Thus the application will conflict and cause the application to crash. This is usually caused by something faulty in the memory or the system. The first thing I would do is test my ram sticks to see if there is anything wrong with the ram sticks.

If you have more then one ram stick,for example two 1 gb ram sticks or 2 and so on. Then Turn off your computer and remove one of the ram sticks and then boot and try playing the game. If the game does not crash then something is up with the other stick,if it stills crashes then switch the ram stick with the one you first took out and test again and see if it still crashes. If it does not crash then something is up with the other memory stick. If they both fail then the next thing I would is do a memory test.

Download a copy of Memtest86 and burn the ISO to a CD using Iso Recorder or another ISO burning program.
Take a look at this guide on how to set it up and run the memory test http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

If you get any errors then that is a indication of something wrong with your ram sticks.
