Uninstall agk.

Try to disable any firewalls or virus protection programs like norton antivirus or mcaffe.

Reinstall the agk where it wants to put its files and dont change anything.

Re activate your firewalls and virus protection.

And try to start it again.

Sometimes does firewalls and virus protection mess upp installation on some programs.

Edited..........
You do have version 1036 of the agk and not the old first one?

Codeblocks is the compiler ide that crashes if iam not wrong?

Can you give people some more info on wath your setup is like ?

Antivirus and other programs you may run in the background?

I have only installed it on windows 7 as i whas forced to buy an new computer as my old one crashed and died on me

Have you runned defrag on your computer lately? so that you dont have any fragmented clusters on your drive?

It can give this problem sometimes?

I didn't type in a serial and then the problems started happening. I decided to install it on a Windows 7 PC and i did the same however codeblocks loaded but asked for me a serial, i entered the serial and it's working fine on the Windows 7 PC. Not sure what the problem was with XP, but i got it working on Windows 7 so no biggy.
