Visual Studio 2005 build problem

Question

Cheers,

I have Microsoft VS 2005 installed (full version). And when I'm trying to build or debug my solution (with 10 projects) a windows installer window opens and says:

The feature you are trying to use is on cd-rom or other removable....

So I then put my VS2005 CD and VS does his thing and than my build and debug processes are working. But when I shut down VS and open it again and when I want again to build my solution it asks me the same thing.

I deleted VS2005 and installed it again (again full version) and it asks me the same thing. I am really crazy right now.. why VS just don't do "update" or something, I don't want to insert CD every time I start VS.

tnx

When Visual Studio was installed on your system, you might have chosen a typical installation or a custom installation that did not include everything available to it. This is appropriate in some cases (low disk space, you know only a certain subset is all that is aver or should ever be used).

Try reinstalling, and make sure its a complete install. And don't have it delete unused pieces.
