The pt1.exe file is part of the PerformanceTest software. It contains and runs the CPU tests. Several instanaced of pt1.exe can execute at the same time during a CPU benchmark run, depending on how many CPU and Cores are in your system.
A couple of users have reported this error.
"Pt1 application has stopped working"
In every case so far this has been traced back to the CPU being overlocked and failing under high CPU load.
So if you see this error, the first step is to return your CPU to normal clock speeds and retest.
Overclocked Phenom II CPUs seems especially prone to this.
