On reboot of machine, something is crashing .Net.

I've got 5 programs that I wrote that are all in the startup group. When you
reboot the machine, you get an error saying Common Language Runtime
Debugging Services Application has generated an exception that could not
be handled.

Anybody have any ideas what this means? Yes I have the program in debugging
mode but I can't even get a clue as to what it's attempting to do. Any
suggestions on what to look for?

It only seems to be when everybody starts at once. If you start them
manually, they seem to work OK.

TIA - Jeff.
 
Jeff,

It could be anything. Are they competing for the same resource,
perhaps?

Without the exception information (which should be available to you),
it's impossible to tell.
 
you should have some error catching engine in your applications -
try...catch blocks that at least create error logs.

by having this you can post exception here and we could give you more
detailed advise

hope this helps

Do any of the programs use shared resources (such as configuration
files)? If so it's possible one program is working with the file while
another one tries to access it.

Do the programs depend on services which may still be in the process of
loading?

Anything that is common among the programs is wrapped around mutexes so in
theory they won't all be trying to get at them the same time.

It's just that with that error, I am getting nothing so I don't even know
where to look.
