Well, I sent an email to Spiderweb Software a few hours ago that basically contained what I posted here. I am awaiting a response from them now. Hopefully, they are aware of the problem and will provide a fix soon. The only other option, I can see is to try to create a DEP exception for the application. I will try that now and update when I have a result. *UPDATE* Windows 7 will not allow me to add the application to the DEP exception list. Quote: This program must run with data execution protection (DEP) enabled. You cannot turn off DEP for this program. Oh well, it was worth a shot. The only thing to do now is to wait for a fix. This sucks because I really want to play these games in order!

I also purchased the Avernum: The Great Trials Trilogy bundle on Steam. I am posting the error message that I receive after updating my Steam client and trying to run Avernum 4 and 5. Avernum 4 Code: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: BEX Application Name: Avernum 4.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 4f302de7 Fault Module Name: StackHash_0a9e Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000 Exception Offset: 00000000 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Data: 00000008 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1 Locale ID: 2057 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Avernum 5 Code: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: BEX Application Name: Avernum 5.exe Application Version: 0.0.0.0 Application Timestamp: 4f31bb55 Fault Module Name: Avernum 5.exe Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0 Fault Module Timestamp: 4f31bb55 Exception Offset: 00000000 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Data: 00000008 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1 Locale ID: 2057 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 I notice that the error message I receive is nearly identical from the OP. I hope that someone from Spiderweb Software reads this and are able to help in this matter. Should I contact support or should I just wait for a fix? *UPDATE* I forgot to mention I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit w/SP1, with all of the current hotfixes applied. Thank you!
