I resently moved to a new machine (running win2k). I
installed VS6 with sp5 and it seemed to work fine. But now
anytime I try to open a workspace or project I get an
MSDEV.EXE divide by zero error. Anyone have any ideas?

Hi,

Have you ever tried logging on as another user? If the issue does not occur
with another user account, you may fix it by renaming the ¡°Layout¡± key
under ¡°HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\DevStudio\6.0¡± using your
current user account.

In addition, you may also try reinstalling Visual Studio. Please refer to
the article below and make sure you have cleaned up related registry
entries before reinstallation.
