Build Visual Studio 6 project with Visual Studio 2010

I am trying to build a project created in VS 6 with VS 2010. When I open .dsw file, VS converts the project asking me this message:

"... ProjectName.dsp must be converted to the current Visual C++ project format. After it has been converted, you will not be able to edit this project in previous versions of Visual Studio.

Convert and open this project?"

When I say "Yes" VS opens the project. Now, since I must add one header file and a library to build this, I added the .h file and .lib file paths by setting VC++ Directories.

Now, I am not sure when and why, but in some time after this, VS 2010 gives me the following error popup window that keeps showing:

"Microsoft (R) Visual C++ Package Server h开发者_Go百科as stopped working

A problem causes the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."

Any help with solving this?

I had the same problem here and the reason was incorrect permissions on an included file. The user running Visual Studio 2010 must (obviously) have read access to the file!

Im not sure if this will be helpful for anyone else but in my case I saw this error and discovered that my hard drive was full. I cleared a few gigs of space and everything worked again.
