Users having regular crashing issues can try this. Good luck!

Do a Vegas "reset to default values"

Close the program. Now press CTRL+SHIFT while double-clicking on the program's icon to launch it. Continue to hold the CTRL & SHIFT keys until the program is fully up and loaded.

In newer programs, you will see a window that asks "Do you want to reset all preferences to default values?" Place a checkmark next to "Delete all cached application data" and then click Yes."

It's not in the manual, but the reset is needed after any hardware changes, especially GPU cards, because Vegas may be pointing to old hardware settings.

"Unmanaged Exception" has, in my experience, always been a driver issue.
