I have a weird problem, in Debug Mode this code works fine:
char* PCInformation::GetCPUName()
{
    if (CPUName[0] == '\0')
    {
        _memset(CPUName, 0, 0x3F);
        // Get extended ids.
        int CPUInfo[4] = {-1};
        __cpuid(CPUInfo, 0x80000000);
        unsigned int nExIds = CPUInfo[0];
        printf(3, "%d\n%d\n", nExIds, 0x80000000);
        // Get the information associated with each extended ID.
        for(unsigned int i=0x80000000; i<=nExIds; ++i)
        {
            printf(3, "0x80000000 nExIds: %X, i: %X\n", nExIds, i);
            getchar();
            __cpuid(CPUInfo, i);
            // Interpret CPU brand string and cache information.
            if  (i == 0x80000002)
            {
                _memcpy( CPUName,
                CPUInfo,
                sizeof(CPUInfo));
            }
            else if( i == 0x80000003 )
            {
                _memcpy( CPUName + 16,
                CPUInfo,
                sizeof(CPUInfo));
            }
            else if( i == 0x80000004 )
            {
                _memcpy(CPUName + 32, CPUInfo, sizeof(CPUInfo));
            }
        }
    }
    return CPUName;
}

Edit: (this is how _functions looks like)
BOOL CallDynamic(const char* szModule, const char* szFunction, DWORD* dwReturn, size_t argc, ... );
#define printf(argc, ... ) (CallDynamic(MSVCRT, "printf", NULL, argc, __VA_ARGS__ )) //number arguments, arguments
If you wonder why there are _ for the STD-C Functions, its because they are called dynamically, but that is not the problem. (Because the same code used to work fine, but I put it in a class and bahm!)
Anyway if I choose Release (as Build Mode) (int) i contains some weird value or something. For more declaration some pictures:
Release

Debug
 In release it ends up with infinite for-loop.

Edit: I just changed the code to:
char* PCInformation::GetCPUName()
{
    if (CPUName[0] == '\0')
    {
        _memset(CPUName, 0, 0x3F);
        int CPUInfo[4];
        _memset(CPUInfo, 0, 4);
        __cpuid(CPUInfo, 0x80000000);
        _memcpy(CPUName, CPUInfo, sizeof(CPUInfo));
        __cpuid(CPUInfo, 0x80000002);
        _memcpy(CPUName + 16, CPUInfo, sizeof(CPUInfo));
        __cpuid(CPUInfo, 0x80000003);
        _memcpy(CPUName + 32, CPUInfo, sizeof(CPUInfo));
        __cpuid(CPUInfo, 0x80000004);
        _memcpy(CPUName + 48, CPUInfo, sizeof(CPUInfo));
    }
    return CPUName;
}
Altho I still like to know what is causing it.
