If you can reproduce the problem on another machine, I'd probably try a different compiler, and/or try and reduce the test case to a short program that exhibits the same problem. If you can't reproduce the problem on another machine, I'd probably suspect bad RAM. Charles Cazabon's memtester might be able to confirm that, http://www.qcc.ca/~charlesc/software/memtester/ -F
