Default HELP I'M IN DRIVER HELL! "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005).

Hi,
I have an original mbox and have been using it with PT 7.4 on a windows vista home edition 32 bit laptop with no issues. About a year ago I got the infamous error "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click OK to terminate the application." I have uninstalled and reinstalled a hundred time and the same error pops up. Since then...

1. I have tried at least 6 different usb cables.
2. I have no third party plug-ins.
3. I unchecked compatability mode as recommended
4. I have run cc cleaner and regcure countless times.
5. I have uninstalled just about every program that did not come with this laptop
6. The lights all appear normaL on the interface

I am 50 hours in and I am hoping that someone has the magic answer. I have read countless forums and followed all the recommendations, I have no idea why it suddenly stopped working. PLEASE HELP !!!!!

Also after each installation I can see in the driver "Dalwdm.sys" in the driver folder and when I go to my device manager The sound, video and game controllers folder shows "digidesign mbox" and when I click on the icon it says "the device is working properly"

I'm stumped

Have you made sure that windows is not attempting to use your mbox as the system sound playback device?

I don't think so. The computer speakers are on whether the mbox is plugged in or not. I'm still at it. and I'm truly stumped.

I just checked my drivers folder and the driver version I have is 7.4.0.309 if that helps.

If it's only 50 hours, you might be able to do a restore point to restore the computer to the state it was in when everything was working. System restore is in the control panel for Windows.

Sounds like old bad DEP problem for me... When I put phrase "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005)" to google I got very good anwers. "DEP fix" was also very good described on this forum, answerbase etc.
