Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

The IDE crashes about every 10-20 minutes for me.. its been doing this
ever since I started this project (The project was a 2003 project but I

recreated it in 2005)

When it crashes, its usually after I close the app I'm testing.. lets
say I'm debugging the app, and I get an exception, and I have to stop
the execution for whatever reason, after that, next time I try to
compile (as in either Build or Build in Run, or even build a setup
package which rebuilds the rest of the solution) the IDE dumps on me...



When it does this, I get about 50 or so DrWatson popups telling me the
program has crashed... when i hit Close, another pops up... I can click

through about 50 of these, or just kill the thread which is what I've
been doing lately.


Here are some of the errors left in my event log... I'm wondering, how
do I debug this? I tried "Send to Microsoft" but that crashed too so I
haven't tried again since. Oh also, we have another development machine

here with someone working on it that has the same hardware specs as me
and the IDE crashes on them in the same way too.. with the same
project..


Below are the errors in the event log I get (because of the DrWatson
popups, or Error Reporting.. whichever you want to call it) The first
one I get the first time, then after that the second continues to popup

about 50 times in succession. I noticed the VS IDE threads are not
blocked cause I can perform any operation thats not asynchronous, like,

saving the doc I have open, and then it blocks until I hit "Close" on
the DW popup. Then it saves for a bit, a new popup comes up, it blocks
the IDE, closing that popup lets it continue a little more.. 3 or 4
popups worth of closing is generally enough to get the doc save, then I

kill the thread.


ANY help would be appreciated, I'm not even sure where to go or what to

look for for this type of problem.

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

I and many others have had nothing but trouble with VS2005. It is a real bug
farm.
The only hope is on the horizon as I read SP1 is intended for release this
October.

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

look for

Switch back to VS2003 until the 1st service pack for 2005 comes out.
Hopefully, that will be less than the 3 years that 2003 has been waiting for
a service pack.

Of course, since Visual Studio 2007 is already in the works, there is
probably no motivation for MS to fix anything. Especially when they think
they can force develpers into the next, best, even more expensive,
non-backwards compatible developement environment.

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

How much RAM do you have?

Let me say that I personally have not had any real problems with VS 2005.
On occasion, it does appear to lock up, but I attribute some of that to my
own impatience and not letting it finish its previous task and I start
clicking to try to do something else.

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

I have 2 Gigs of Physical ram, Gigabit Ethernet, Dual Core Athlon 64
3800+, Raid 0x4, and ~500GB free of disk space... Its usually pretty
sluggish for me... I mean, not horrible.. but when I hit execute, takes
a second to get everything going.. I don't think that's what's causing
the problem though because it happens in a very particular way... it
just happened again.. I got an error when stopping the application (or
just after stopping it)

"Faulting application devenv.exe, version 8.0.50727.42, stamp 4333e699,
faulting module kernel32.dll, version 5.1.2600.2180, stamp 411096b4,
debug? 0, fault address 0x0001eb33."

Now I know at this point if I try to compile, it'll crash, and if I try
to close it'll crash... so here I go, gonna try to compile, and I got
"Visual Studio was unable to recover from error &Hxxxxx..." I didn't
get to copy the whole thing because shortly after that popup came up,
the error reporting "Microsoft Visual Basic Compiler has encountered a
problem and needs to close." window came up and since the thread is
block the other window won't display the error anymore... anyway, it
does this same thing frequently.....

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

I am also getting this problem regularyly, so here are my details to
help identify the source of the problem.

I have 1GB ram, Intel 2.13 Ghz. I did not have the 2005 Beta installed
on this machine, though the project files were created using the Beta
2. I also have a solution file with a webservice, setup projects,
windows form projects and standard class probjects, all in VB.NET.

The error messages are persistent and are close to making VS 2005
unusable.

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

I've since found this is related to a bug that's getting close to being
resolved. If you search on Visual Basic Compiler Error &H8013141e&
(the message box that preceeds the above conditions) you can find out
more about it.

It appears there is a bug, mostly involving edit and continue and
related to timing issues on slower systems, multithreaded cpus, and/or
network shares. A work around is to disable edit-and-continue. I've not
had the problem since I've disabled edit-and-continue, and from a post
by one of the leads on the team fixing this problem at MS in the ms dev
forums, a resolution is imminent.

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

I'm not sure if it will help you but I have fixed the continual crashing of my VS2005 by updating the DXCore:
See my blog for a link

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

I'm having the same problem, but it appears to be associated with
autocomplete (otherwise, the error report is as described above).

I did a clean install of VS8 and worked OK for several days, including
editing several large files. Then while working on a relatively small C#
file, I went to add a property in the editor and got a total hang with the
CPU stuck at 50%. I am able to reproduce the problem 100% of the time by
going to the same place in the C# file and trying to add a property. When I
turn off autocomplete, the problem does not occur. The problem did persist
across a deletion of all compiler intermediate and temporary files.

Here is a listing of the entire program, with the "bad" spot indicated by a
comment. (Note that the code has no particular purpose, I was just
experimenting with Generics.)

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;



namespace NTNO {


[System.Serializable]
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute("n", Namespace="")]
public class CNode <
TParent,

public CNode ()
{
fInitialize(default(TParent),default(TChild));
}


public CNode (
TParent iParent,
TChild iChild)
{
fInitialize(iParent,iChild);
}


public void fInitialize (
TParent iParent,
TChild iChild)
{
mParent = iParent;
mChild = iChild;

mCount = kCount++;
}


public void fLinkParents ()
{
fLinkParents(default(TParent));
}


public void fLinkParents (
TParent iParent)
{
mParent = iParent;

//mChild.fLinkParents(this);
}


[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElement("p")]
public TParent mParent;

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElement("n")]
public TChild mChild;

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElement("c")]
public int mCount;

// Adding a property below this comment of the form:
//
// public int qCount
// {
// get...//etc.
// }
//
// will cause the hang 100% of the time, though it may occur
// at different points in the editing process.
}

[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlRootAttribute("n", Namespace="")]
public class CNodeUniform :

{
public CNodeUniform () :
base()
{}


public CNodeUniform (
CNodeUniform iParent,
CNodeUniform iChild) :
base(iParent,iChild)
{}
}


} // Namespaces.

new NTNO.CNodeUniform ();

NTNO.CNodeUniform xNodeUniformCurrent =

for (int i=0; i<4; i++)
{
xNodeUniformCurrent.mChild =
new NTNO.CNodeUniform();

xNodeUniformCurrent = xNodeUniformCurrent.mChild;
}

xNodeUniformCurrent.fLinkParents();

xXmlSerializer.Serialize(

xStreamWriter.Close();

re: Visual Studio IDE Crashing Very Frequently

Update:

It appears I have a subspecies of this problem:

Any hotfixes or work-arounds yet?
