Intel Parallel studio 2011 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 crash on startup

dupuisp — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:43:27 GMT

I am a newbie in the intel community.I want to compile fortran programs so I wanted to try the 30 days trial of Intel Parallel Studio.

Mylaptop is a Dell Precision M6500 (64 bits architecture) Intel Core i7 CPU Q820 @ 1.73GHz, 12GB ofRAM
64-bit Operating system. Rating of 6.9

I downloaded Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 for evaluation and installed it.Started it and it worked. Looked at the help and then closed it.
Then I downloadedIntel Parallel Studio XE 2011 and installed it. Installation succeeded.Now, when I click on the startup icon on thedesktop ("Parallel Studio XE 2011 with VS2010") the splash screen appears for a fraction of a second and then dissapears. The following message then appears in a popup window:
"Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation".
Quite annoying! Any steps to correct this ?. I must confess I usually code in C++ in the Enbarcadero RAD Studio XE. More annoying is thatwhen I try to lauch Embarcadero RAD Studio XE i now get a system path too long. So a lot of havoc since I installed the two software yesterday night. Any advice ?

What exactly is the Visual Studio 2010 you installed (Express or Professional or?)?
Did you get more info about which system path is too long? Maybe it's PATH. The Parallel Studio XE adds a bunch of path settings to PATH.
What if you start Visual Studio regularly via Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio ...
Can you start the Fortran compiler ifort on command line via Start -> All Programs -> Intel Parallel Studio XE -> Command Prompt (and choose one, ia32 or intel64)?

Hi, Hubert Thanks for taking the time to help me.
Visual Studio 2010 Professionnal (downloaded yesterday night).
I am running Windows 7. I could not open windows explorer too to go edit the path or even ask at the command prompt to launch an exe from \system\...This morning I hadto leave for ameeting so I put my laptop to rest.Before going to sleep I had 7 updates that were installed (maybe this helped fix the problem) because onreboot I found that I cannow usewindows explorer and that the pathfieldis ok.Embarcadero is working again. Visual studiois working (29 days remaining in the header - for the evaluation period).
The only side effect remaining is that the window explorer icon and the calculator icon are replaced by the default icon on the quickstart taskbar (at the bottom of myscreen).
From the main menu of Visual Studio 2010 Professionnal,Iselected Help-->About andthere are 4 Intel items listed in the Installed product panel:
IntelVisual Fortran Package ID ...
Intel C++ Composer XE 2011 Package ID ....
Intel Inspector XE 2011 Update 3
Intel Amplifier XE 2011 Update 3
There is a Hotfix for Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professionnal (ENU(KB2542054) KB2542054
and more item listed including a security update.

Sowith my little knowledge, I guessI am back on track. I must nowfind the way to load a 2D finite element modelcode (Fortran) but this is another story!Thanks for your time!
Regards, Pierre.
