SLOW Visual 2005 SP1

Hello,

I have a BIG problem with a SMALL Visual C++ 8 solution stored on an USB flash. The original solution was made with Visual C++ 7 and worked fine. For some reason when I switched to version 8 a SOLUTION_NAME.NCB file is generated on flash. It looks like it takes forever to write this file on flash (I lastly got bored and killed devenv). Unfortunately I did not manage to find how to store this NCB file on HDD (projects’ BSCs are stored on HDD). I finally renamed the feacp.dll file and everything seems to work fine until I closed the solution: it took about 15 minutes (yes, I did not kill it).

My systems: Pentium D @ ~3GHz, 1GB RAM
OS: Windows XP, SP2
Visual Studio: 2005, SP1.
My solution: 4 projects (54 files, 5481 lines) stored on flash; intermediate (including projects’ BSCs) & out files stored on HDD.

To conclude: HELP!

Thank you.
