When I use C++ AMP every time AMP initializes a _com_error is thrown. This happens even with Microsoft's AMP samples like HelloWorld_AMP.

In the output window it says:
First-chance exception at 0x74bd4b32 in HelloWorld_AMP.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: _com_error at memory location 0x00cedab8.
First-chance exception at 0x74bd4b32 in HelloWorld_AMP.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: _com_error at memory location 0x00cee348.
First-chance exception at 0x74bd4b32 in HelloWorld_AMP.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: _com_error at memory location 0x00cee538.

This exception seems to be caught internally. But still it causes trouble like the debugger to stop on exceptions. Also thrown and caught exceptions on normal program execution are a performance problem.

I use a Radeon HD 6570 with Catalyst 13.1 driver.
