Is there any update on this issue?
I have had the VIA client working before, and currently, on a Windows 7 64 bit system but now I am running into this same problem.
I have tried 2 versions of VIA to see if it was the version or not; versions 2.1.0.2 and 2.1.1.0 both crash.
The machine that it is crashing on has a new install of Windows 7. Before the re-install of Windows, the VIA client WAS running version 2.1.0.2 without fail. The only change was hard drive replacement.
