I may be wrong, but after reviewing your results, even though your system is experiencing access violations, I believe it's a graphics display problem causing the client errors and terminating the WU's.

The 1st and 2nd WU's below ended in client errors under BOINC V4.19 (1st WU) and BOINC V 4.25 (2nd WU), both producing an access violation; but take a look at the last line of the WU's stderr_txt showing a path on your system pointing to the Einstein graphics.

Even though the 3rd WU below under BOINC V 4.25 produced an access violation, it completed successfully with out producing the graphics path text!

It may be that the WU's your system is crunching are somewhat graphics sensitive. You can try turning off the graphics (screensaver) or not use the graphics display (don't show graphics), or reset the Einstein project in hopes the next batch of WU's won't have this problem.
