c++ - Exception handling

First I'm not experienced in that theme, but I'm looking for a way to handle
system crashes due to illegal pointers, division by zero or something like
this. I want to avoid "blue screen" and handle the error by myself, i.e at
least shut down my application.

My application uses standard C code without any MFC stuff.

I tried some exception handling with __except, __finally but I didn't get it
work like I planned.

If there is anyone, who can give me a few hints, how to realize it in DMC, I
would be pleased.

For that reason (avoiding blue-screens and on-fly problem resolution, such
as writing to primary video surface when its address is changed) I used
Win32 API function, namely SetUnhandledExceptionFilter.
