Branching to main form assembly error

Hey guys, do you know why a simple branch to main from the reset handler causes an hard fault? Heres an example where I try to branch to main via the reset hander in the startup file provided by Keil and this causes an

hard fault. Any cue?



Reset_Handler    PROC
                 EXPORT  Reset_Handler             [WEAK]
     IMPORT  __main
                 
                LDR     R0, =__main
                BX      R0
                ENDP

    I found it, I don't know why the startup file Keilprovides load the register r0 with the address of the label __mainbut it certainly doesn't work for me. Instead, I load this register with the label main without the two
    underscores and it work perfectly.



            IMPORT  main
                     LDR     R0, =main
                     BLX     R0

                     ENDP
