Compilation / Build Freezes

Hello! I have a problem...

Sometimes, when I try to build some project, the compilation freezes forever...
And it stops only if I finish the process "mingw32-g++" and "as.exe"...

It occours about 50~60% of the time, and another times the building is normally...

What can be?

Thx! And sorry for my english, I don't speak english very well :P

It be your hard drive is going bad.

I didn't meet this problem.
I have built OpenCV library, code::blocks , wxWidget library. All these libraries will take several minutes to finish, but the compiler haven't froze. :D

I think you are right, because this happen with the most simple of the codes and with complex too... all codes :(

bubo:
I had this problem too.
If you have Vista:

1. download all recomended OS updates (especialy 1st service pack)
2. download mingw3.4.5 patch for vista (or use newer mingw 4.2.1)
3. DON'T use parallel build (Compiler settings -> "Number of processes for parallel build":  set it to 1!)
4. if you use thirdparty libraries -> rebuild them all with new mingw

Optionaly:
Rarely it freezes when my notebook is in "battery saving" mode (follow 3rd point about parallel build)

I hope it will help
Regards
