hi,
i'm new to this forum and i have problem, i've just installed devkitpro and configured VS2008 but when i try to compile any project
make.exe always crashes showing this output:

0 [main] make 5636 handle_exceptions: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION
672 [main] make 5636 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to make.exe.stackdump

and that's what's inside make.exe.stackdump:

Apologies for the delay in a definitive reply here, I've just had to delete several posts playing guessing games which really isn't at all helpful

I've just updated the msys bundle provided in the installer so run an update and see if that sorts your problem. Failing that, the usual reason for these crashes is related to "security" software and/or logitech camera drivers.

If you have Logitech software installed, try this

type the command _services.msc_ from a command prompt (you will need administrator privileges to do this), then find the "Logitech Process Monitor" service, and change the "Startup type" from "Auto" to "Manual". Do the same with the "LVSrvLauncher" service.
type the command _regedit_ from the command prompt (you will need administrator privileges to do this), then find the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Among the other REG_SZ keys, there should be three of them related to the Logitech QuickCam, namely: "LogitechCommunicationsManager", "LogitechQuickCamRibbon", "LVCOMSX". Make a backup of the registry, then remove them.
reboot your PC

For "security" software see http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.using.html#faq.using.bloda (msys is a cygwin fork and suffers from poorly written security products too)

hi, thank you for your reply and for the solution.
i tried to disable Windows Defender service and it worked...
is there anything I can do to remedy the problem without disabling Windows Defender?

Try preventing Windows Defender from scanning the devkitPro folder, some instructions on adding exclusions at http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-vista-t ... mpeng-exe/
