VC2005 Beta2 Crashes

Hello,


I'm running beta 2 on a W2k SP6 machine. I have a large solution
converted from VS2003 that is all native C++ code. The development
environment is having persistent crashes. A crash happens every
minute or so and I get a group of dialog boxes that say something
to the effect "unknown software exception 0xc000000d at location
0x7c3b3984, ok to terminate, cancel to debug"). I can choose 'ok'
and continue running the program(!). I usually end up moving the
message dialog mostly off screen and continue working (modeless
dialog). Is this a known issue

Another problem - when I change a project's properties (say disable
warning 4996) and then try to instigate a build of that project,
the devenv just hangs. Anyone see this

    The crashes happen without any input from me - in other words I can simply load my solution and the crash dialogs will start popping up while I'm just sitting there staring at the screen. It must be happening in some background threads (intellisense ).

    The problem seems to be isoloated to my main solution - I can load other solutions and not see any problems. My main solution is quite large - over 40 projects, and close to 3000 cpp files total. The solution was converted from a 2003 solution.

    I'm sure this isn't much help unless MS can get a reproducible case.

    We've done a lot of IDE stability fixes since Beta2.  Do you have access to MSDN Subscription to try the July CTP build

    I'm having same issue and have reported to in :
    Microsoft Technical Forums .NET Development 64-Bit .NET Framework Development. Re: error try project only build - 2005 beta , build type x64

    not much help yet .  

    I too have a large native c++ solution converted from vs2003 . Today my gpf's are lees frequent but still exist and seem "random".

    Why have the jit debugger envoked if no one will help diagnose the error

    good luck
