"sh.exe has stopped working"

[Callum Hibbert]

Hello,

I am receiving the error "sh.exe has stopped working" when running Git Bash. If I run the command directly ("C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i) I can see the following in the cmd window:

    0 main sh.exe" 2260 sync_with_child: child 2916(0xE4) died before initialization with status code 0xC0000005

    326 main sh.exe" 2260 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for longjmp

    sh.exe": fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

I am running virtualised Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit (on Amazon EC2) and Git "Git-1.7.7-preview20111014" installed which is the latest version I can find.

I've tried various combinations of running with elevated privileges and disabling UAC.

I would really appreciate some help to fix this.

Thanks,

Callum
