Win32 exception codes start with a two-bit severity indication.
00 means "success", so nothing is wrong.
01 is an "informational" messages.
10 is a "warning" message.
11 is an "error".

That's why the common exception codes you see start with hex C0, as they
are "errors".

The rest of the top 16 bits are the "facility" that caused the error.
Often not filled in.

To Convert an NT exception code (ntstatus) to a Win32 error code, you
call this routine:

ULONG RtlNtStatusToDosError(
  NTSTATUS Status
);


Then you can pass it to FormatMessage and it will work.
