You don't tell whether you did programm on windows. Anyways, do a relay log,
search for the call to the messagebox with the said error and look what
(miss)happend above. Try also with native msvcrt, because builtin msvcrt
still has many week points.
And clean out your registry from loading native hardware drivers. On second
thought, IOPL smells for direct hardware access, probably requested by some
driver trying to load. The relay log might help finding out what registry
entry or ini file entry causes this driver to load.
Bye
