Bruno,

It might be a good idea to test the crash dump to ensure that it is enabled.
There are times when it can't work, or at least can't generate anything
useful (crashes on overlapped threads come to mind, and maybe others), but
it is a great tool.

You might want to check for zombie views.  Under the right circumstances,
they can make a mess of things.

That is a very viable explanation.  However, I would first ensure that the
crash dump is enabled (if nothing else, for any future problems you might
encounter), purge zombies, and redeploy.

Have a good one,
