IIS app pool crashing with exception 0xc0000005
Solution 1
Kindly check the account under which worker process w3wp.exe is running have read/write permissions of your hosting folder.(E.g. Inetpub)
Solution 2
I had the same problem. In my code I had the following line of vb.net code:
Dim mPath as string = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop)
My whole ASP.NET crashed, because it can't access this folder at runtime. Error handling doesn't work. Clr simply crashes.
Replacing this line by an existing directory solved my problem.
Solution 3
I had the same problem and it took me two days to find the solution. So even if this thread is almost three years old I post my answer. Maybe it helps someone else to save a lot of time.
I had to disable the cache feature in the web.config. I used the "caching" as well as the "staticContent" tag. Had to remove both.

My app pool keeps crashing when I use a .net provider written by a third party. I'm not sure where to even begin to troubleshoot the issue.
I used Event Viewer to get the following information:
Faulting application name: w3wp.exe, version: 7.5.7601.17514, time stamp: 0x4ce7a5f8 Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 6.1.7601.17514, time stamp: 0x4ce7b96e Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x00052d94 Faulting process id: 0x162c Faulting application start time: 0x01cd8ad4f6ad757b Faulting application path: c:\windows\system32\inetsrv\w3wp.exe Faulting module path: C:\windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll Report Id: 36661c3b-f6c8-11e1-830c-180373c0a6cd
