First be sure that you have downloaded the Insight version 5 debugger
from http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/.  There are enormous improvements
over the earlier version and it is configured to work with Dev-C++ on
Windows machines (if that is what you are running).  Well, it's not
perfect but it crashes far less often.

What message do you get in the Console Window when that happens?  What
happens when you enter RUN in the console window?  Verify that the
Target is set to EXEC in the Target Selection area.  From the Source
Window click on File, then Target Settings.
