It is probably a problem with Windows. The kernel is a core part of it, and nobody else seems to be having the problem that you are. You could try running Windows Update to see if that fixes the problem. If not, it's possible that you could have a virus (try House Call or AVG) or you could be infected with malware (try Ad-Aware, Spybot, and MS Antispyware to fix that). I can help out with spyware myself if you are having problems with that when I have time, if you want; my AIM is in my profile.

I have got this error or an error similiar to it on my computer and my friends.... Just restart Graal or something I dunno... Did you search google for that exact error that usually helps?

Unlikely. An attempt to read an address so low like that is frequently the result of a null pointer being passed to a function held within the kernel32 DLL. If that's the case, it's the result of improper coding within Graal, not the Windows DLL.

Such problems are most of the time caused by a bugged richedit32.dll, so a windows update can often help.

Which version? What exactly causes the issue? I'm just curious for future reference. :P

I had a CWS virus. That was the main problem that caused the errors.

I know that some programs are replacing richedit32.dll, e.g. some older Visual Basic versions. But those older versions are not always compatible with your current windows version / service pack version.
Also viruses might try to modify some dlls to hook into the system.
