@cazlo A crash in the Windows kernel is likely caused by a driver problem. I suggest you try another audio device driver in the program preferences.
If yo cannot open the program try holding CTRL and SHIFT while starting Acid until a small window appears that will ask you if you want to reset the program settings.
This error appears when I open a project uploaded by someone on the Internet. When I run for 2 seconds this error appears But the program works fine without the project.
