Hi Peter, I'm not at all an expert on any of this (or even really competent) but some quick googling returns this thread: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Strange-return-code-and-compilation-fail-td145362.html
where they say that error is an access violation from within Lilypond (ie, it's not Frescobaldi). If it's happening on old .ly files, have you tried running convert-ly on them? Have you tried creating a MWE just to make sure your Lily is working at all?
