Describe the bug ethminer dies immediately with code 3221225477

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

ethminer.exe --HWMON 0 --farm-recheck 200 --report-hashrate -U -P stratum1+tcp://wallet@eth-us-east1.nanopool.org:9999/workername/email@gmail.com -P stratum1+tcp://wallet@eth-us-west1.nanopool.org:9999/workername/email@gmail.com -P stratum1+tcp://wallet@eth-eu1.nanopool.org:9999/workername/email@gmail.com -P stratum1+tcp://wallet@eth-eu2.nanopool.org:9999/workername/email@gmail.com -P stratum1+tcp://wallet@eth-asia1.nanopool.org:9999/workername/email@gmail.com

output:

 m 22:10:20 main     ethminer 0.15.0
 m 22:10:20 main     Build: windows/release
cu 22:10:20 main     Using grid size: 8192, block size: 128

then it just stops

Expected behavior ethminer to start

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• Operating System: Windows 10
• Hardware GTX 1070
• Ethminer Version 0.15.0

Additional Info

• adding verbosity doesn't add any additional output

• ethminer does see my devices:

  
  ethminer.exe -U --list-devices

Listing CUDA devices. FORMAT: [deviceID] deviceName [0] GeForce GTX 1070 Compute version: 6.1 cudaDeviceProp::totalGlobalMem: 8589934592 Pci: 0000:01:00

- I have 17 other almost identical machines running ethminer just fine, but this is the only one just failing silently.

actually I just notice that this looks similar to #1483

If you run this the non email version does it work?

ethminer.exe --HWMON 0 --report-hashrate -P stratum1+tcp://ETH_WALLET.WORKERNAME@eth-eu1.nanopool.org:9999

I have 2 more ideas to try... real long shots...

https://windowsreport.com/exception-access-violation-windows-10/ see part on: Solution 1 – Add Data Execution Prevention Exception

If that fails then try to switch ram from rigs that work into this one and see if its not a ram issue.
