I am running Visual Studio 2010 in Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit in VMware 4.1.1 running on 2 processors and roughly 2GB of ram. On debugging a simple application Visual Studio seems to hang/unresponsive. I then get a bubble message informing me that “Visual Studio is busy waiting for an internal operation to complete”. After a few minutes I then receive the following prompt:
“A fatal error has occurred and debugging needs to be terminated. For more details, please see the Microsoft Help and Support web site. HRESULT=0x80131c08. ErrorCode=0x0.”
Microsoft’s Support website can’t find a solution. I have searched my favourite resource ‘Google’ to no avail. As well as looking here on stack overflow. I did find a post on here similar but unrelated to VMware, post mentioned that this error was due to a memory issue, so I increased the virtual machine to 4GB and tried the whole process again. And got the same error.
Has anyone else experienced this issue, or found a solution or could point me in the direction of the right thread. As I say I did search to no avail.
This had nothing to do with my configuration, VMware / Memory. I am embarrassed to say it was completely my fault. Issue in my code with an array, although I have never been able to cause Visual Studio to crash before with my own code. Apologies for wasting your time @Hans Passant.
