I tried many time to start a Windows Live Messenger on a Windows XP with SP3.
It is always come with error 0xc000005 when I try to load it.
I uninstalled it and reinstall it. Still error.
I download the new installation file, still error again.
How I solve it at the last? I did a clean installation of Windows Live Messenger.
