xna not working anymore

Question

Hello!

I wanted to change from Reach to HiDef and when i tried that i got this error :

Error   1   Building content threw AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

When i tried to go back to Reach, the same error occurred . I thought that i may have messed the code in some way so i tried to run a 2-day old back-up and the same error appeared . What could it be ?

The problem is with your FBX model. Have you updated software you use for generating it? You can try reverting it to older version.

XNA importer is probably a bit outdated. You can use converters to change FBX file to older format.
