My bet is you're using the Debug Kernel for Windows, right?  I had a similar
problem with WRT under the Debugging Kernel.  It doesn't happen to me when I
switch to the Standard Kernel.  You might try that. (Apparently WRT tries 
to get memory in the wrong way, and the debug kernel takes exception to it.)
(Also, don't forget to delete all those Actor temporary files in your TEMP
directory from all the WRT crashes.)
