I only can say that I had this message on my previous 32bit Vista. I communicated with support, installed and uninstalled C++ libs, and found out that the message showed up the moment the process hit the memory limit. This limit is 2Gb for a 32bit process in 32bit Windows (*), 3Gb for a 32bit process in 64bit Windows, and no limit (untill your virtual mem maxes out) for 64bit process in 64bit Windows.

(*) This is what started me to find out about changing those limits, as described in some tutorials on my Missing Manuals site.

BTW: it's logical memory, not physical RAM. Does it happen also when you render an animated bouncing ball? 2Gb ram is not that much, you know. Maybe it's not a memory thing in your case.

So, in the meantime, Google reports a vast number of C++ Runtime Lib errors, even quite recent, on a plethora of applications and not only on Windows 7. A generic advice is to run a registry cleaning.

BTW: I am running the 2008 - x64 9.0.30729 and the x86 9.0.30729 (both june 2011 + update jan 2012), and I never had such issues on this machine at all. Perhaps it pays off just to dump the 2005 and clean the registry. Or: dump them all, clean the registry and just re-install one. Having all three installed doesn't feel good to me.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.
