I installed 1727, and my IDE crashed about 3 times in a couple hours. I rolled back to 1724 and all is well.

Visual studio 2008 on Windows XP professional. Crashes occured for both a C# and a C++ solution. I think the crashes all occured at the start of a build (so maybe while saving changes to files?).

Do you have any other IDE plugin's installed?
Do you have "Platform Builder" installed? This is related to developing for mobile devices.

Any change of reinstalling VA 1727 and producing a mini dump of the crash, to help us try and figure out what is causing the problem?

The only other active add-in I have is JetBrains TeamCity 4.0. I also have ReSharper installed (but the add-in is disabled in Visual Studio).

Probably can't provide a dump if it has source code info in it.

I don't recognise JetBrains TeamCity, but I have just downloaded and installed version 4.5 onto a winXP test machine. I did a default install, but I am not seeing any obvious sign of an IDE plugin showing up in VS2008.

Is there something else I am supposed to do?

This crash, if you have the time, can you see if you see the crash when compiling a new, default C++ or C# application?

If you are concerned about a mini dump how about just the call stack?
Can you search for any files called "errors.log" under the directory:

C:\\Documents and Settings\\ USERNAME \\Local Settings\\Application Data\\VisualAssist\
This will show if VA is logging any exceptions prior to this crash.

Creating a minidump will not have any of your source code in it. Without a dump, unless we are able to reproduce the problem ourselves, there is no chance of fixing the crash.

IDE:VS 2008 Team Edition
no other plugin except VA1727
I have the same experience, but not so bad. VS2008 crashed 4 times within half and a week.
Here's the step causing crash:
1-?-?Coding for a long time about an hour or more in C#/VC++.
2-?-?Save the solution.
3-?-?Press <<X>>CLOSE BUTTON, IDE crashes.
In my personal idea,maybe there have some collisions between (VS AutoRecover) and (VA AutoRecover).I only use the VS AutoRecover.

Next time this happens can you please save out a mini dump file and send it to us? Hopefully this will give us some clues about the cause of the problem.

This FAQ explains how to save out a mini dump file:
