Fox Pro Stopped working and OLE error code 0x800a004c

I have modified an old FoxPro application in VFP SP2 and the final executable(.exe) works fine in my development system. Even in debug mode the application is fine. But when i try running the same build along with the supporting DLLs (got this info after googling) in another system it throws out these errors and the program terminates. However these errors are intermittent. 

Fatal error: Exception code=C0000005 @ 09/12/14 03:31:07 PM. Error log file: D:\tool\VFP9Rerr.log
Called from -  load line 0  { load.fxp}
Called from -  report line 0  { report.fxp}
Called from -  master line 0  { d:\tool\Tool.exe}

Another Error is:

Exception: 1426 - OLE error code 0x800a004c: Unknown COM status code.
Procedure: master
Line Number:0

And the most Frequent one :

Microsoft Visual FoxPro has stopped Working.

Im facing these issues only in other systems. In the Development System it is working good.

Im using Windows 7, 64bit for both development and testing.

These are the DLLs i used: 

   VFP9RENU.DLL
   VFP9RENU.DLL
   vfp9r.dll
   GdiPlus.dll
   msvcr71.dll
   msvcr100_clr0400.dll
   msvcr110_clr0400.dll
   msvcrt.dll

Why is this happening in other systems ?

Further checking the Events Viewer, i found these error.

Faulting application name: Tool.exe, version: 8.0.2.0, time stamp: 0x47139f24 
Faulting module name: VFP9R.DLL, version: 9.0.0.7423, time stamp: 0x49a31c32

Thanks for the responses, the actual cause of the c5 error was the anti virus program installed in TEST systems which were blocking access to certain files. It is advised only to use virus scanners that allow you to exclude certain files, folders or file types from the scan process. Always exclude DBF, FPT, CDX, DBC, DCT and DCX files.

More info about other causes of C5 can be found here.

Is it possible that this is the known problem with opening a form that contains a grid from a menu item of type command? That causes a C5.

Details on this page: http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~VFP9SP2BugList~Wiki, search for "grid"

Are you sure that the VFP DLLs (VFP9r and VFP9RENU) match the version you built in? You say VFP 9 SP2, but there are also hotfixes that are later. The last version, with all hotfixes is 7423. SP2 without hotfixes is 5815. Make sure that the version you built the EXE with and the DLLs have the same version number.
