Using Sdl_Image in Visual Studio 2010, with Error "Application Was Unable to Start Correctly 0Xc000007B"

VS2012 Error: The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)

The actual error code that you encountered is 0xC000007B. That is the NTSTATUS error code STATUS_INVALID_IMAGE_FORMAT. That error arises, almost invariably, because the application is 32 bit and attempted to load a 64 bit module, or vice versa. In your case, you state that your application is 32 bit, so it seems that it is attempting to link to a 64 bit DLL. Use a tool like Dependency Walker to diagnose the module which has the wrong bitness.

I don't understand why you are distributing both release and debug versions of the MSVC runtime. You only need one, and that one should be the release versions. The files that end d are the debug versions. You are not permitted to redistribute them.

Dev IL linking and compiling error (0xc000007b)

First, the error is not a compiler or linker error. That error is a runtime error.

You are running a 32-bit application, but the SysWOW64 directory indicates you're attempting to load 64-bit components for the 32-bit program. This of course will not work.

There could be several reasons for the error, but the first one you should inspect are your project settings. Maybe somewhere x64 is being used, causing a dependency on the 64-bit DLL's to be encountered.

If all else fails, please use a program such as Dependency Walker http://www.dependencywalker.com/

and inspect your EXE file to ensure it is a 32-bit executable, and also to view the dependent DLL's.

C++ SDL Native' has exited with code -1073741701 (0xc000007b)

Have you tried the suggestions in this answer?

The error you're seeing usually indicates that a runtime dll can't be found. If you have already tried the above, perhaps you could open the built executable in depends.exe which should let you know which DLLs are missing.

SDL Initialization ERROR

This post bellow answers my request

Resuming you should point to the SDL X86 lib on: Project->Properties->VC++ Directories->Library Directories

I was pointing to X64 =)

Good Bye!
