Zeus ships with a version of gdb, so the problem you are seeing 
might
be related to that version of gdb.

To test for this, I'd suggest using the Windows, Start Run button 
to
create a command line prompt and try using an alternative version 
of
gdb to debug your executable directly from that command line.

But don't use a command prompt created from within Zeus itself 
only
because that will have the PATH set so that it finds the Zeus 
version
of gdb.

If by using an alternative version of gdb you can debug your 
executable
that will mean this is an issue with Zeus.

However, if you get the same error in both cases then at least 
you'll
know the problem lies elsewhere.
