I registered only for this purpose. I got the exact same error, on XP on 2 systems, with SATA in one and IDE in another, intel cpus.

Both LimeWire and FrostWire crashed right after the loading screen. Literally after reading this, I tried running it, it failed, I renamed AxShlex.dll, re-ran it and it worked. That is precisely what it is, though I have NO idea why the hell that would do it, especially since the .dll wasn't even in use at the time. Anyway, thanks for finding the fix You've caused me much relief, this was seriously getting on my nerves. Now let's hope Alcohol 120% still runs, though Daemon Tools will suffice for now if it doesn't.
