Visual Studio 2010 keeps crashing?

I have a serious problem with our VS2010 with SP1. It is all the time crashing. I open it and 10 secs later I get crash and restart.

When I check the event viewer. I see that error log below:

I have tried everything

We use also TFS and all users are affected. noone is able to use VS. thats why i believe it is not VS related that I should re-install, It sounds like something with project but what? i dont understand.

Only difference between last working version and not working version is "a new class added", "a dataset was extended". nothing else!!

EVENT VIEWER LOG:

Faulting application name: devenv.exe, version: 10.0.40219.1, time stamp: 0x4d5f2a73

Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.1.7601.17651, time stamp: 0x4e211319

Exception code: 0x8004753b

Faulting process id: 0xad0

Faulting application start time: 0x01ccaf8b820071c5

Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe

Faulting module path: C:\Windows\syswow64\KERNELBASE.dll

Report Id: e3138c45-1b7e-11e1-bb8c-001999505d92

EDIT

I have just found that code below causes VS to crash and restart. It is a simple linq code and I don't know why it should cause VS to crash. I am 100% sure it is the reason because when I take it off, everything is fine but when I include it. it crashes. cachedata is shared class having partners as Entity Framework code first object. any idea why? I have also other EF POCO objects in myCache data class which I call similarly in different classes but they work fine. So I tried to copy same code in that crashing class which works in other class, VS crashed again. likewise code below works in other class. what is up with this class? I have linq namespaces imported!!

thanks 

Dim myPartner = (From item In myCachedata.partners Where item.partner_ID= partner_ID).FirstOrDefault()

I have finally found the error and it is really unbelievable error!! Actually I have had that code in other function written like below

Dim myPartner = (From item In myCachedata.partners Where partner_ID= partner_ID).FirstOrDefault()

see the where condition. I was trying to match parameter with itself. so that partner_ID is byval parameter of the function I have and this causes VS IDE to be crashed. I dont know if same error exists in C# or not but yes VB has it. If anyone can try and return feedback whether this is my VS or general, I appreciate. thanks.

PS, for me this doesn't give any build error (even though I never had time to build completely while it was crashing right after 5-10 secs).

Have you tried removing .NET 4 and re-installing? (re: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-GB/vseditor/thread/06ff7046-a993-40f3-a72d-4d7dd4b35ed2)

From the sounds of it, if all users are affected, it may be that you've got a PC that's been built from a clone, and it had a bad install?

Either way, worth a shot...or at least follow the steps in the article, it may point you in the right direction.
