Okay. My apologies for this, but this appeared to actually be a beginner mistake.

It seems that one of my many header files had "included itself", therefore it had stalled the entire Intellisense. Although while I don't understand why it would compromise the entire Intellisense for the entire project, this isn't really much of a bug anymore.
