Ok, in that case, product feedback is the wrong mechanism. That's more for
improving future products.

These groups might help, but it's hit or miss. For instance I don't have a
Windows 2000 instance with .NET 2.0 running anywhere, so I can't help.

For analyzing and resolving issues in shipping software, Microsoft support
is the way to go: http://support.microsoft.com/.

Well yes... I posted a reproducible code sample and it crashes in the
CLR -
hence my request for some help from someone in MS - they seem to have
acknowledged it is a bug without actually describing what the bug is

So you don't want a workaround? You just want to know why it crashes on
Windows 2000?

To find out why it crashes would require reproducing and debugging it on
Windwos 2000.

There is a code sample in the bug report - (its actually a stripped
down
version of code for a splash screen but that's irrelevant - I'd like to
know
why it crashes)

I filed a bug report and got the very unhelpful response that I
should
ask
here in the newsgroups for a workaround so here I am. If someone
from
Microsoft could explain the cause of the bug I filed and offer a
workaround,
I would be most grateful
Thanks

For a workaround, you would need to describe what you are trying to
acomplish.
