I don't know why the same script is running fine on one system and throwing lot of fatal exception on other models
Environment Python version: 3.7.2 (tried with both 32 & 64 bit executable) Pywinauto: 0.6.8 Operating system: Windows 10 (Build version: 16299) Laptop Model: yoga
Also tried with installing python & pywinatuo as Administrative mode but still getting the same error message.

I had this exact same problem. my python version was,
$ python --version Python 3.7.2
and my pytest was
pytest==5.3.5. I got the exact the same problem you got.
I downgraded the pytest to 4.0.0 and it worked perfectly fine.
On another machine with a python version of 3.7.0 and pytest==5.3.5, i did not notice the problem.
Therefore, either downgrading the python from 3.7.2 to 3.7.0 or downgrading the pytest to a lower version will work.I hope this solves your problem.
