failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006). Click on OK to terminate
the application". The strangest thing is, it installed the os just fine
about an hour ago. Im running the MSDNAA version of windows XP SP2 and
i am using LITE-ON 16X DVD±R DVD Burner Black ATAPI/E-IDE Model
SHW-160P6S-04 for my cd/dvd drive. Is this a problem with windows xp or
do i simply have a drive that coincidentally went bad right after xp
install?

I just tried to run a cd and this time recieved a different error:
"Only part of a ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory was completed".

I do not yet have a solution but i have the same problem.
Norton Internet Security is popping up with messages like
***
198085343.exe is attempting to connect to a DNS server
***
After i select "Allways block connections from this program on all
ports" it will give me another window with yet another "###..##.exe is
attempting ..." message.
In paralel with this I am getting a windows pop up with title
"218367843.exe - Application Error" and message "The application failed
to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the
application". Once I click OK i'll get a different numerical value .exe
in the title of an identical window. If I keep clicking ok after I look
in Task Manager I'll have a collection of running processes which I
cannot stop.
These processes also apear in C:\windows\temp
From this directory I can delete some but not the running ones.
If anyone else experiencing this issue has found a solution please
post. Thank you!

I just fixed this problem on my computer. It was a program that was
trying to startup, but it was damaged or something. I found the
program by searching on google the title of the box "bcmwltry.exe" By
searching it on google.com it led me to links that clued me in that
that was the "Broadcom Corporation Wireless Network software." I
uninstalled it and reinstalled it. The error box may only be slowing
your computer down from starting. Mine took like 20 minutes to finish
the start process. With the error box popping up over and over.

I am having the same problem as Thaimor. I recently had a virus on my
computer which made me completely format my hd. I put on xp and
everything seemed fine but now everytime I try to put anything into my
DVDRW (Sony DRU-800a), I get the message "The application
failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006). Click on OK to terminate
WriteProcessMemory was completed".
I've read it could be many things like: bad cd, bad drive, toggling
the DMA/PIO modes, malware, 80pin IDE cable instead of 40pin.
My system is clean of any malware because I've formatted and run virus
scans. It's not a bad cd because its happens to all my cds/dvds. Its
not the drive, because it works perfectly fine if I boot from it or
read from it outside of windows. It worked perfectly fine before the
format. I've tried repairing the xp install. I guess I haven't tried
switching to a 80pin cable. I will try that. Is there anyone that can
follow up on this question? What else can I try?
Also, the dvdrw lets me explore some cds but it wont let me execute any
files. It just sort of lags and freezes when I try.
I did go to http://winhlp.com/node/10 and use their vbs to reset some
DMA settings which actually worked! I ran some cds for a little while
and then it stopped working again. PLEASE HELP!!! :-/

The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006). Click on OK
to terminate the application
This error has just occured. So far I have noticed occuring for 2
thinks...
I try to open up a game called archlord.exe
and another game wow.exe
I just downloaded archlord. For the wow.exe, i had this application for
awhile, however, it just started to give me this error when i try to
load up the application.
What could the cause of this error occuring? What could i do to fix it?
I was thinking it could be a video problem, however, any other
application works.

I'm aware that an extremely similar post has been started, but my
problem seems to be quite different. I receive this error when I
attempt to execute any maintenance or utility type function and when I
try to use Internet Explorer. (I am accessing this site via FireFox.)
I am running Windows XP home.
The computer is a Dell Inspiron 9200 Laptop.
A couple of examples of when this error message pops up are
1. When I attempt to access the control panel (right now I cannot
access it at all)
2. When I attempt to execute a command from Start>>Run
3. When I attempt to use MS Internet Explorer (Thank goodness for
FireFox and its stability)
Some observations. This causes my computer to boot up VERY slowly.
Starting new applications is very slow. It takes five minutes to load
FireFox and MS Word.
Here's another fly in the ointment: When FF went to version 3.8, it
has been blocking executable downloads. In order to change this
setting, I have to access the control panel, internet settings.
Tell me, will I have to reformat and reload XP? Dell didn't send the
XP CDs, so if I have to reload XP, I'm hosed. If anyone can tell me a
work-around I would be greatly appreciative!
Thanks, Ken

0xC0000006 means the Device it is looking for cannot be found.
You need to try to eliminate malware as a potential cause of the
problem. What are your anti-virus and anti-spyware arrangements? Some
malware target components that would help with it's removal. This could
be why you cannot access Control Panel.
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
1.36 -freeware (if you upgrade you pay).
http://www.download.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html
Run Malwarebytes' and turn off your current anti-virus
before you do to avoid a conflict. Disregard the invitation on the web
site regarding the Registry Optimiser -a Registry Optimiser is not a
helpful utility.
If it is malware and you succeed in removing your problems may not end
there. Malware often damages system files. If is does you the have to
repair the damage.
