ArcMap v10 - Crashes during 9.3 file geodatabase editing

We have a 9.3 file geodatabase that we're editing using ArcEditor v10 SP1.  Some of our end users will be using Desktop v9.3/9.3.1 for several months and need to view a copy of the data so we do not want to upgrade the database to 10 because 9.3/9.3.1 users can't view data from 10.

There are 3 datasets in the geodatabase.
1 dataset contains 8 feature classes, 1 line (5 line subtypes), 1 poly, 6 annotation
2 datasets just contain 1 feature class, both polygon
The dataset containing 8 feature classes contains 6 topology rules.

We're editing data in the 2 datasets with topology.

There's nothing complicated with the database design.

PROBLEM:
=======

With an 'edit session' open, ArcMap v10 SP1 (ArcEditor) will randomly crash and open a window to send ESRI the error report.  Any edits that were not 'saved' are lost.

Things we've tried that haven't worked:
===============================
- The 9.3 file geodatabase was on a network server so we moved it to the local C drive.
- Disabled the enterprise antivirus.
- The desktop pc was running dual monitors and the display would act funny sometimes so suspecting the video card we removed 1 monitor.

I mostly interested in knowing who else might be having some of the same problems.  I can't believe we're the only ones.


Thanks,

I am having a similar problem.  We are running SDE 9.3 and I am working on upgrading an extension that I wrote before I upgrade all the existing 9.3 users to ARC 10.  Using ARC 10 on my desktop whenever I try to edit data stored on SDE I get an error stating that the Jet Database cannot find the table "GDB_DataChanges".  The code fails on the ifeature.Store method.  I am assuming that this is a compatibility problem with a ARC 10 Desktop trying to edit a 9.3 database.  But I am here hoping to find a way around this problem.  ARC10 should be backward compatible.


mcsquared, did you ever find a solution or workaround to this error?  I'm getting the same error when using Arc10 IFeature.Store on existing features in an 9.3 SDE layer.
