I have been debugging an app that doesn't yet run properly when compiled as a release. I am making progress, but in the process of testing, something bad happened and now most of the time when I try to call up Help, I get a message that says "not enough memory, close some applications and try again" Then I click OK on the dialog box and everything including the IDE goes away. Then the computer gets really slow and I have to do a restart to get it back. I have reloaded windows, VC++, and SP2, so it must be some sort of config file problem somewhere. I have also done scan disk and registry checker. No problems are found. Any suggestions? I think a file somewhere got corrupted.
