Why I try to run the following OpenCV program, it shows the following error :
----------------------------------------------------------------------
test_1.exe - Application Error

The application failed to initialize properly (0x80000003). Click on OK to terminate the application.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

#include "cv.h"
#include "highgui.h"

int main()
{
	IplImage *img = cvLoadImage("C:\\face.bmp");
	
	cvSetImageROI(img, cvRect(100,100, 100, 100));
	cvAddS(img, cvScalar(50), img);
	cvResetImageROI(img);
	cvShowImage("Test", img);

	cvWaitKey(0);

	return 0;
}

When i press F5(im using vs2008express), the program encounters a break point...i have attached a picture...dont know, whether, it will help or not.

It is not that, only this program is producing this error, but also any kind of image manipulation funciton containing (OpenCV)program is resulting in this sitution.
Such as : cvSmooth

one last thing, it there any dedicated OpenCV forum or sth like that?

I have made a little progress.

Check the program with Dependency Walker, and found out that somwhere in related with SHLWAPI.DLL and MPR.DLL a function
WNetRestoreConnectionA in causing the error, which cannt be loaded at runtime.

As far has i have seen this is a common error.But, yet havn't found a solution.

Googling answers a little...it says,
"Turn off your compilers setting to assume you are programming for Win9x.
(I just lost which setting but it is not that difficult, use a #define...) "

...how to do this is VS2008 express?

this simple problem is freaking me out. :@ :@
