We have recently upgraded to VS2005 (&SP1, .NET 3.0, 'Vista SDK', VS add-ins
for WPF,WF,WCF, running under XP Pro), and we are experiencing constant
crashing problems, mainly (but not exclusively) immediately after starting a
debug run whilst windows form visual designer pages are open. Has anyone
else experienced such an issue, and if so has anyone found a solution?

A company I worked at that was doing .NET development. They had the XP Pro
machines configured wrong. There was lots of problems, like lockup, running
slow and VS IDE actually terminating, when debugging.

The virtual page file size for XP was too small that was causing the
problem. The O/S was set to control the page file size automatically as
needed. The debugging problems went away.
