Program (AutoCAD 2000) randomly closes on Windows 7 x64. No logs in event viewer, procmon logs show process is exiting normally despite no user interaction.

Program closes itself randomly, taking all work with it. Doesn't hang, just closes instantly.

Getting really useful information from procmon and event viewer... https://i.imgur.com/wx2kosR.png

Not sure what to do next.

may not be compatible with the os

It is certainly not designed for it as it's very old. I'm not the one using it. I've basically said that I'm not going to spend ages trying to get it to work because it's 15 year old software and if you want things to work properly you need to use the latest version.

Just thought I'd make a post here in case anyone had any ideas.

Has anyone attempted to run it in a '98 VM?

No, but I am sure it would work OK as it was designed for 98. I'm definitely not setting up a vm for someone just for that though.
