Hey guys,

I have a problem when trying to run Windows Live Messenger. I get a pop-up window saying;

The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000034). Click on OK to terminate the application.


I have re-install the program 238953284897 times already and yet still getting the same error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Uh, I don't have the same error number, so I don't think that link is useful.

I also get this same error when trying to run Windows Media Player. As well as other various programs. Is there an issue with the Registry or something?

Hm, I followed your steps and the problem still exists.

Edit: Actually, after rebooting, the error is gone.

Thanks heaps.
