Eclipse: Java was started but returned exit code -1073741571
Solution 1
Thanks everyone for sharing solutions with me it seem that I had corrupted xml ( I am still not sure what corrupted means but it was forcing the IDE to crash) here is a snippet:
<com.android.example.EndlesScrollView...
<FrameLayout...
<LinearLayout...
Each time I tried to use Graphical layout
view in eclipse the IDE crashes, All I did was to delete that XML totally and re-create it from scratch, it seems something wrong with the XML Tags which preventing the Graphical layout
from correctly displaying the correct UI.

I noticed that the VM listed is: C:\Windows32\System\javaw.exe which I believe is the Java 7 installed version. My configuration is using one of the earlier installed JVMs (from my Eclipse.ini):
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_14\bin\..\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll
Maybe you should update Eclipse to use a 1.6 version of Java to run. From the Eclipse readme.html (found in the Eclipse install directory):
Specifying the Java virtual machine
Here is a typical Eclipse command line:
eclipse -vm c:\jdk1.4.2\jre\bin\javaw
Tip: It's generally a good idea to explicitly specify which Java VM to use when running Eclipse. This is achieved with the "-vm" command line argument as illustrated above. If you don't use "-vm", Eclipse will look on the O/S path. When you install other Java-based products, they may change your path and could result in a different Java VM being used when you next launch Eclipse.

Sometimes means that the workspace is corrupted.
Create a fresh workspace and try a XML file.
