Can you run Emacs under GDB at all times? If so, type this GDB command: (gdb) set debugexceptions 1 and let it run. When the problem happens, I expect that GDB will show us the exception name (that's what the above setting is about), and it also might stop the program and show the real backtrace via "bt". If you cannot run Emacs under GDB, there's still a way to see at least the address where the exception happened, but if that address is inside some library function or Windows API, we will probably have hard time guessing which code of ours triggered that. So please do try running under GDB. Thanks.
