Visual Studio Lockup

I am working on a Windows App made up of 7 different projects and we are using VSS.

Today when I went to run the program for the first time, it performed the builds just fine, but then it could not run the app. The CPU usage maxed out at 100% and my computer just spins until I end VS.NET.

My co-worker has the exact same files from VSS and his runs just fine. I have deleted all of the files from computer and started with a fresh set from VSS, but to no avail; everytime I try to run the app my computer just spins until I end it.

Has this happened to anyone else

Any Ideas

This is really odd. Can you take the .exe built on his machine and run it on yours Can you create a simple project and build and run it on your machine How about a small multi-project solution

Thanks for the quick reply,

I replaced my .exe with his and now it seems to be working normally again. That was weird. I use the term 'normally' because this App seems to have a problem starting about 70% of the time for me. It compiles fine and then waits, I then click the 'restart' button and then it runs but of course always starts in debug mode.

Is this a known issue when solutions have multiple projects (this, meaning the 'play' and then 'restart' bug )

Its not a know issue to the best of my knowledge. Can you repro this without VSS It seems to me that this might be an source control type issue.

I bet you're right, it probably does have something to do with VSS. I haven't experienced this with other multiple app projects not in VSS (although this is the largest one with 7)

Well thanks Mike, I think I'm going to like this Windows Forms Forums stuff ;)
