- Judging by the number of complaints of this nature, it may very well be.
- On my lap top (P-120/24megs RAM) it has never crashed -- and I've used
- it a lot; on my 486/66 - 32 mb RAM, several times a day.
-
- When I first got MSVC40, I called MS support three times about this subject
-
- but did not get the problem resolved by the time my 30 days of free support
-
- had expired. To be fair, my main complaint was a "C1001 internal error"
- although I also mentioned the GPF crashing -- thought the two might be
- connected. The C1001 error disappeared when I upgraded from 16 to 32
- mb RAM.
-
- There is a patch that fixes the problem -- but appparently not in all
- cases.
- I've seen posts about it in a Compuserve forum but haven't had time to
- download the patch yet. Check with MS BBS or Compuserve and look
- into downloading the patch.
