Buffer overrun detected - SBDDesktop.exe

Error message when either clicking on "Company" in the main short cuts in the opening page or "Nominal Ledger" from MODULES menu.

Buffer overrun detected!
Program: ...ram Files\Common Files\Sage SBD\SBDDesktop.exe
A buffer underrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated


Sage will not close unless I shutdown the computer or "End Task" the application.

This is very frustrating as I rely on keeping track of the finances.
I have rebuilt the data, run several checks on the data, and tried the data on another Line50 installation. Nothing works.

I have created a new company and this works fine, but I don't have any data..... i.e. do I really need to re-enter all the data?

I have managed to import the Customers, but all invoices and bank transactions seem to be un-available for import.

I do not make matters better that I am an IT professional and spend most my day fixing problems like this for others... (Just not on Sage)

I would be prepared to send the files away for repaired if that is possible.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
