Cheat Engine

I'm running windows 7 64-bit with the 64-bit version of Cheat Engine. This has been driving me crazy lately; I am a full administrator and the only account on my computer. Even if I right click and run as administrator, usually after a few minutes, nearly everything I do raises Access Violation. Even using the code injection template. How do I fix this? I tried reinstalling cheat engine(no success).

I'm not sure but maybe try the 32-bit version of cheatengine? That made everything work for me.

Did you install or update a multi display tool ?

@Dark
I was using a $30 cheap monitor along with laptop but I get it without it being used.

All I know is that most of the time (if not all) is that there is a systemwide hook installed that also hooks into 64-bit processes.
e.g. muti display tools and shell extensions

Most of these hooks (especially the ones by amd) don't work well when they receive an unexpected command, since exception handling in 64-bit is very different than in 32-bit, and when they ported their tool to 64-bit, they forgot about that
