No, it's still a bug in your program.  Keep looking.

  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
See?  Your stack segment is invalid.  Somehow, you have succeeded to
trash it.  You need to establish why.

Is that a full code of your program?  If so, where's the main
function?

Please post the source of a shortest full program that crashes like
above, so that it could be compiled and run under a debugger.

One thing that isn't clear from your snippet is how were res_x and
res_y declared.  If they are declared ushort, then res_x*res_y
overflows, and your loop goes awry.
