List of Vista/Visual Studio 2005 Problems!

Well, after looking at this list, I'm thinking of staying with XP/VS2005 for
a while longer. At least until SP2 is out and Vista has been burped a few
times.

Here's the link to the list of KNOWN woes that await MS developers on Vista.

And don't forget to review
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobu...tasupport.mspx for the SQL
Server 2005 / Vista KNOWN issues also.

Is there any wonder fewer and fewer people are choosing programming as a
career?

Frankly, I didn't intend to update until it was adopted by the companies
for whom I write software. This isn't a huge shock; it was the same way
when XP was introduced -- everything required new drivers and/or software.
How soon they forget...

Hi, On Friday I attended the Microsoft EVO conference in London where they talked about Vista, Office 2007 and Exchange 2007 and how they all work together beautifully, how they were all "people-ready" etc... I asked a couple of questions about Visual Studio.NET on Vista, especially on 64-bit Vista, and they became *very* nervous...

Hi As Windows Vista is around the corner, I'm considering upgradeing my dev machine. But, one thing I'm curiouse about it if there are any known issues with Vista and Visual Studio 2005. Not fun to use 2 days reinstalling, and when I'm finnally sitting down to do some programming, something hangs or is broken. I've heard something that Visual Studio 2005 will not be supported until SP 1 for VS is released. Anyone got any info?

I am Using Vista with Visual Studio 2005 and when I open a project, it could take a full minute or two before the "start debugging" button turns green on the menu. Also, in the Solution Explorer, the buttons for "View Designer", "View Code", and "Refresh" don't appear. If I am in the designer, I need to right click on the form and choose view code to see the code. On my XP machine, everything works just fine. Has this happened to...

First of all, I tried installing VS2005 Pro on Vista Ultimate 32 bit RTM and Vista told me that VS2005 was not compatible with Vista. How the hell can that happen? I thought one of the main ideas of .Net was portability. Then, when I looked around some more, I saw that VS2002 and VS2003 will NOT be supported on Vista. What the hell? That violates Microsoft's own terms of support for both of those products! It is clear that...

Does anyone know which edition of Vista you have to buy if you use Visual Studio and probably will upgrade to Visual Studio 2008? Is the Ultimate edition necessary, or will the home or business edition work just fine?

I am running Visual studio 2003 with framework 1.1 on a vista platform. However it runs very slow in debug mode, especially while it is loading dlls. What is the problem? Is there a compatibility problem between XP and Vista? How to speed it up? If I upgrade the Visual studio 2003 to 2005, will it solve the problem?
