I have a DX11 program that attempts to use a Hull shader and Domain Shader. It appears to work fine on its own and in the VS2010 debugger. However, while trying to debug the pixel shader, I'm having trouble getting the effect I want, so I tried to start the whole thing in PIX to see if I could do some more detailed debugging, and the whole app is crashing before I get a single frame displayed. Sometimes I'm getting a drive reset, which at least lets me get back to pix and see an error log, other times the whole computer locks.

There's nothing particular clever in the program itself, so I'm fine with posting all the code if needed, but for now I'll just list the errors I'm seeing in the log from PIX when it crashes. Has anyone seen this? Any idea how to crrect? It seems to be saying there is a mismatch in my Hull and Vertext shaders, but there's not...at least, not that I can see. Any suggestions of where to look would be much appreciated.

As I said, I'm willing to post all code and such, but don't want to force anyone to read through it all until needed. Thanks in advance for any help.


NOTE: I found several posts regarding that same "mismatched topology" error referencing the effects framework, but I only have one set of shaders at present for debugging and don't think that really applies to my issue.
