intel compiler on vista: "unable to obtained mapped memory"

I'm getting the following error when trying to compile C++ projects using intel compiler version 10.0.025 on vista business edition (sp1) in vs2008:

unable to obtain mapped memory (see pch_diag.txt)

There is no such file as pch_diag, so that's a bit disheartening.

If I try to just use the microsoft compiler, all of my calls to intel's integrated performance primitives (ipp) are met with an access error into the program files directory where the ipp is stored.

Any ideas?

Solution

  • Here's the answer:

    Run icl in xp sp2 compatibility mode. It won't work in vista mode. Which is a bit odd, but there it is.
