Thank you. This still produces an error but I think I my have over stepped my abilities for now. The error is: Unhandled exception at 0x66ACF8C5 (msvcr120.dll) in Cons3.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x01070000. I think it's time for me to go back and play with simpler things again until I have a better grasp of how the memory region works. Thank you

Hmm...is the function self-modifying? You get that sometimes in small demos. In that case, you have to use PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE instead of PAGE_EXECUTE.

I have tried that but no luck with it. Later on Ill open the program in olly and see if I can see whats going on deeper inside the code. Visual Studio doesn't have the greatest debugger in the world lol. If I find anything out I'll post it. Who knows maybe someone else will find a piece of knowledge they need here sometime.

@404Usernamenotfound You'll need to strip the executable header and/or meta data, do some fix-ups, and other housekeeping before the code and be successfully executed. If this is a PE file the format is documented and there are numerous examples of creating a loader for it. If it's an EXE it likely won't work since it probably doesn't contain relocation information.
