Java crashes with EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc00000005)

The AirVideo Server for iPhone runs only under Mac and Windows and needs Bonjour and JRE. Java always crashed with

EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x7d826f48, pid=8, tid=12

After some poking around, I found a thread at nabble.com. Disabling the d3d9.dll was the solution:

  1. Run winecfg
  2. Go to the Libraries tab
  3. Select d3d9 from the drop-down box, click Add
  4. Select the new entry d3d9 and click Edit…
  5. Select (X) disabled, click OK

That was it. Now, Java should run smoothly.
