"Bad allocation" error on Windows Vista

Ever since the betas of .9.5, I've been having a lot of crashes of the "Unhandled exception: bad allocation" variety.  I have no idea what's causing them, and I don't expect anybody else to either.  This is because there are no crash logs being generated, as far as I can tell, by either Foobar or Windows.

How do I proceed from here?  I love .9.5, but I hate having it crash on me every hour or so.  I'm running Vista Ultimate, 32-bit.

This problem is very likely because you have component(s) that is/are compiled with the old SDK. Please double check and upgrade your components first if necessary. If it still crashes then post your component list please.

Wow, I just saw this response (and it was based upon a notification of the other response).

I am not 100% sure what I did to fix it but after time I got it all working, haven't had an issue since.

Thanks. :-)
