Dec 5, 20111. Does Windows load the .Net framework at boot time? How can I check (eg. some DLL running in the background)? How much RAM does the framework use, so that I check I have enough to pre-load at boot time? Once loaded, will it stay in RAM?
2. What is the point of JIT once the application is installed on a given computer? Are there drawbacks about compiling into binary code applications that I use often on my own computer so that no time is wasted recompiling the application every time it's ran? If not, can I compile apps for which I only the .Net bytecode?
3. Is the framework downward-compatible, ie. will a 2.0 application run if I only have the 4.0 framework installed?

May 3, 2012The problem is as follows: If Windows starts up in Safe Mode, no applications I make with VS 2010 will run. Even if I try to launch them, doubleclicking, running, almost everything I tried, the problem is that the application just doesn't show up.

How To Make Thread-safe Calls To Windows Form Controls
Sep 20, 2011[URL]
In my program, I created a list of a class that contains 5 picture boxes, a button, a label, an identifier, and some other stuff. I've got roughly 65 of these in this list. I'd be stupid to hard code all that in. The identifier is a 2nd way of identifying which specific location I'm working on.
Anways, all this is created at compile time. Works perfectly fine.
I then manually start a background worker that pings a collection of components. Based off the success of those pings, the picture boxes are enabled or disabled. Basically a proactive way to see if a collection of devices over multiple locations are actually working.
It's the background worker that fails because of thread-safe calls.

View 2 Replies.NET Service Failing To Start On Boot?
Jun 2, 2009I created a simple service that does some inventory and records the data to a MySQL server. The service starts just fine when told to from the services administration panel. However, it will not on computer bootup. I get the famous error.
The InventoryService service failed to start due to the following error:The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. I've read that logs can be a problem, so I disabled the autolog...but that didn't solve any problems. I believe it has something to do with the user not already being logged in and attempting to connect to a remote database. So, I added a function to check for internet connectivity before executing any inventory methods or SQL queries. This did not fix it either.
EDIT: I also am receiving the following error in the administrative logs. I create the service dependant upon the Tcpip service, but it still fails.A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the InventoryService service to connect.
