VB .NET takes too long to compile

[Heronjr]

Hi,
I am a VB6 developer studying VB.NET and I've got a problem in my home Windows XP, and this problem does not happen in my office Windows XP. The Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architect is taking too long to compile even the simplest projects (1 form, 1 button). It take 3 minutes to compile and execute the application, while at my office machine it does that in seconds. Both machines are Pentium III with 256 RAM (Office) and 512 RAM (Home). Both XP systems are updated as their .NET Framework (SP1).

After compiled, the application runs normally. The problem is F5 (Start).

At home, I also have installed VB6, but I've read that both can live together.

Thanks in advance for any help and greetings from Rio de Janeiro,

oh well, Microsoft just loves to create random errors. how about reinstalling VS?

What else you got running on the offending machine, .net is slow but three minutes seems a bit too much...

As I said, there is VB6 in the offending machine. I've already reinstalled the whole .NET thing and nothing happened.

Do you know whether there are counter-indicated applications that could slow down the VB.NET behavior? If Flight Simulator slows down .NET, so .NET will leave!

VB6 doesn't slow it down any, I have both on my home computer and my laptop. Other apps shouldn't affect it either, unless they are running at the same time. What do you have running in the background? Maybe antivirus? Not sure what could cause it.
