What is 0xC00000E5

STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR

The same as STATUS_DRIVER_INTERNAL_ERROR

This error (STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR) is returned by the driver code when no error code is defined (or the programmer has not found) that would more accurately describe the problem that occurred. Typically, such an error code (0xC00000E5) is generated by a section of code that, in the opinion of the developer, should never be executed. The result is usually deplorable. If you did not see the blue screen of death, then you are a very lucky man.

A condition that halts processing due to faulty hardware, program bugs, read errors or other anomalies. If you get a fatal error, you generally cannot recover from it, because the operating system has encountered a condition it cannot resolve. Typically, buggy applications cause fatal errors (fatal exception errors), and the computer locks up. In most cases, all data that you have changed that has not yet been saved to disk is lost.

There is no rule of thumb with fatal errors. You may never get one again, or it may manifest until you fix the problem. If you get a fatal error after just adding a new peripheral or installing a new software package, remove or uninstall it and try again.

In computing and computer programming, exception handling is the process of responding to the occurrence of exceptions – anomalous or exceptional conditions requiring special processing – during the execution of a program. In general, an exception breaks the normal flow of execution and executes a pre-registered exception handler; the details of how this is done depend on whether it is a hardware or software exception and how the software exception is implemented. Exception handling, if provided, is facilitated by specialized programming language constructs, hardware mechanisms like interrupts, or operating system (OS) inter-process communication (IPC) facilities like signals. Some exceptions, especially hardware ones, may be handled so gracefully that execution can resume where it was interrupted.
