Q: 

***.tmp is not a valid win32 resource file. How to resolve this weird bug on Visual Studio?

I use Visual Studio 2008 SP1.

I'm experiencing a boring bug, that sometimes break my compilation processes with something like:

Error 4 'C:\dev(...)\obj\Debug\CSC4B.tmp' is not a valid Win32 resource file (...)

This file doesn't even is shown in the \Debug folder. The only way I can solve this (temporarily) is to restart the machine. It is happening more frequently now.

Do you know how to resolve this issue?

NOTE:

I've searched in many places for resolving this bug. Most places mention something with icons, but I have set no icons to projects in this solution.

A: 

The problem was really weird. And the fault was of GDI++, an application that changes the way Windows renders text. After closing this processes, everything is just working fine (except the text rendering).
