Shortly after creating a new Thread, my BitsyX goes black (screen) and powers down. I have traced the lines in my code where this occurs but have no idea why.

//// IN MAIN FUNCTION

LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE pStart = MyClient::StaticRun;
LPDWORD pThreadID = 0;
HANDLE m_hClientThread = CreateThread(NULL, 0, pStart, 0, pThreadID);

//////////
ULONG WINAPI MyClient::StaticRun(LPVOID param) {
MyClient* pClient = (MyClient*)param;
return pClient->ClientProc(); ////////////// <---- 'crashes' here
}

///////
ULONG MyClient::ClientProc() {
bool mybool = true; //////////// <--- does not reach this line
....
}

The code is part of a program that I am porting from Windows XP to Windows CE. The lines above work fine on XP. I have checked the CE documentation but it hasn't thrown up any clues...

could it have something to do with threads (prioritys and/or memory footprints) ??

any suggestions welcome.

edit1: I should add that the Debug port reports nothing. The system just crashes.

ok I think I solved this. it was a memory alloaction error when porting the code and nothing to do with threads at all.

thanks.
