Visual Studio 2008 error while trying to load solution file

Question

When I try to load a solution in Visual Studio 2008, it closes immediately. I get the following error in the event log:

.NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.3053 - Machine Failure Error (6E875E00) (80131506)

I searched the Internet high and low and cannot find a solution to this problem. I found similar problems, but none of them matched the part (6E875E00). Here is my setup:

Vista 64
Visual Studio 2008 SP1
.Net Framework 3.5 SP1
ReSharper 4.1
Gallio 3.05
TestDriven.Net 2.18

I have the feeling that this is one of the add-ons, but I don’t know which one.

Does anyone experience this? This is very frustrating!

EDIT: The answer to this problem for later use was made to remove Gallio. This was the only add-in that caused the crash. Thank you all for your help!

Answer 1

Try creating a new solution and import existing projects.

Alternatively, uninstall ReShaper, Gallio and TestDriven and see if the solution loads. Then install one add-on at a time until you find the culprit.

Answer 2

Yes, unlikely. Edit the short link to Visual Studio and specify / SafeMode. This ensures that add-ins do not load. If this does not help, start disabling malware, such as anti-virus scanners.
