According to this[^] link in MSDN either your computer has insufficient resources (not enough RAM etc.) to complete the task at hand or your user priviledges are set too low. First thing to check is your user priviledges. If that does not help then make sure your PC meets the minimum requirements for VS2005.
You may be right

Assuming you are using XP Control Panel ->Administrative Tools ->Computer Management ->System Tools ->Local Users and Groups ->Users Find your user name in the list, right click, select "Properties" Select "Member Of" tab Which group are you a member of?

I'm using win XP Home Edition. In Local Users and Groups I don't have "Users" but in Users in the Control Panel I check, and my user have admin properties (There is only one user in the computer). The VS still don't building my projects ....

I am sorry, but I have never had the problem you are encountering and other than my interpretation of what MSDN says about the problem I have no experience to guide you farther. I hope someone else on this board can help you. I usually do not endorse cross posting but maybe you could try asking on the Visual Studio[^] forum if you do not get an answer here soon.

I found the way to fix the problem, and I've been started to learn VC++.NET. The solution was: 1. In Computer Management, select device manager. 2. In View select show hidden devices. 3. Then you need to locate The Null device in the list of Not plug-and-play device managers. 4. As you find it you double-click it and validate it working properly and running (in device manager tab -> device status). 5. In the registry go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Null and validate Hexadecimal-Value Named "Start" exists and had the value 1 (in hex). If not - add it. 6. Restart your computer. Now is the big problem : ======================== According to step 4 above, the Null device may not working properly (like I did). To fix it you double-click it and choose to remove this device. Then you doing steps 5 and 6 above. After you restart the computer you need to run the Visual Studio Setup in repair mode - This will reinstall the Null device properly. Restart your computer, hold up your fingers and pray to god when it restarts ;P After you restart the computer you can Build and even Run your C++ programs in visual studio !!!
