I was attempting to recompile fasm for windows and it promptly crashed. here is the Dr. watson crash dump, and one from visual studio. Any Idea's as to what is causing it?

I've managed to get fasm for windows to recompile I think the problem is in the include directive. I had to change the include directories specified in the the fasmw.asm file to point to the original fasmw includes ( I use heavily added to and modified include and macro files). It compiled after I did this.
Still not sure what caused this crash though.

Was it the last (6 Jan) update? Is it still happening when you revert to use the modified includes?

Yep, the Jan 6th. Well, I'll be damned, I can't reproduce the crash. It may have happened when my fasminc variable pointed to my modified includes, I changed to the original fasmw includes (full directory path) and it compiled fine. If you can't find the problem in about five minutes with the info that you have, then I would forget it.
