Hi, 
   I run it in Win95 on a 486DX66 with 8MB, and I can't 
believe how FAST it is!  It takes about 5 seconds to 
compile, link, and run a "Hello World" program.
It only takes a few seconds to boot the whole
compiler up, although it can take awhile to shut down.
It's faster to use than VC++1.52, and way, way faster
than VC++4.0.   Your problem sounds similar to my
VC++4.0, ( not enough RAM ).
