>> What are the differences between the checked and free version
The code generated by a compiler is substantially different for
debug/release modes.
>> which can cause such a behaviour.
Most likely: a bug in your code, such as an uninitialized variable or so,
which doesn't show up in the debug mode. I've seen a lot of such cases.
Less likely: a bug in the compiler.
Unlikely: a timing issue.
>> how do I go about debugging
It's not generally easy. Try to find out why the HCT test fails. Review your
code. Comment out pieces of code until the problem goes away. Use Prefast
from DDK.
I never compile my drivers in the debug mode just to avoid the problems you
are facing.
