I had problems with SmartHelp and IDE, dunno if this is related. Format is allways a solution :) MYrc : A .NET IRC client with C# Plugin Capabilities. See http://sourceforge.net/projects/myrc for more info. :-D

this is a known problem with vs 7.0, it is not fixed in sp1 pr sp2, there are steps to help the problem but to be honest i can't remember what they are (sorry). if you post your problems to the microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp newsgroup you will get a lot of help there. I get it about 4 times out of 10, but I get usually get it to work by clicking the restart toolbar button. I vaguely remember it also helps if you don't use your system to host a web dev stuff (asp), stopping some of the services on your machine to do with this helps, although it never fixed mine as I don't use the machine for asp stuff. There is also some stuff on msdn/technet aboput the problem as well. sorry I couldn't be of much help. bg

Our group has encountered the same problem. We have found two things that will "un-hang" the IDE. 1. Disconnect your network connection (I have created a short-cut to enable/disable the connection). 2. Run the NET configuration utility (don't know why this works but it does). :suss:

Chances are mscoree.dll was still lying around somewhere on your hard drive and that could have screwed some stuff up. FWIW, when you got the Beta package there were several warnings about not being installed on a primary computer because the recommended way of switching from a beta is to format and reinstall. Fortunately the uninstall actually worked starting with RC0 ;) James "And we are all men; apart from the females." - Colin Davies

Does it just sit there doing nothing or is it really hung (ie responds to nothing)? For me in about 15 of 100 runs it will stop execution after loading System.Drawing.dll James "And we are all men; apart from the females." - Colin Davies

well - im not 100% sure, after a long time the debug bar appears, but still the app does not show, so I just end the process for the app, and the IDE returns to normal.

I've got the solution! Thanks in advance to everybody who tried to help in anyway. The solution is to recover a bug on the uninstallation program of the Beta version, it's all explained on: Q312115 - PRB: Visual Studio Debugger Stops Responding After You Install Post-Beta 2 Build It's about a service called ".NET Framework Support Service" which is not removed during the uninstall and produces all this problem. You must only to disable it and reinitialize the computer (find it at the Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services, and disable it through Properties window). Thanks to everyone.
