Perhaps it could be hw issue? I've experienced the same behaviour on itanium 
(w2k3/ia64 server); suppose amd64 (with wxp/64) could behave the same way. 
Problem was the code injected - it was compiled for i386, and could not be 
executed as thread inside 64bit task. AFAIK, dll injection cannot be directly 
ported to ia64 platform by eg. recompilation only, as procedure calling 
mechanism is quite different.
