OK, the deadbxx is a memory poisoning technique to help diagnose problems. The "Read access not allowed" indicates that there is a bad pointer address being accessed by the FRC_paramtask. Now that the debugger is seemingly working, you can now run the debugger (that is launch the robot code as a "debug" run). Make sure that you select to attach to spawned tasks in the debugger set up so you can debug your complete code. It should break on entry to the main code. Set a breakpoint in your robot initialization code where the camera is instantiated and step through the code to see what parameters are being passed. Also, could you post your camera initialization sequence?

HTH,

Mike
