Visual Studio Web Developer 2010 Express window numbers and debugging crashes

Installed Visual Studio Web Developer 2010 Express from the ISO available from this page:

http://www.microsoft.com/express/downloads/

If it helps this is the info from the about visual studio window:

  • Microsoft Visual Studio 2010: Version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel
  • Microsoft .NET Framework - Version 4.0.30319 RTMRel
  • Installed Version: WD Express

For some reason I get silly big red numbers appearing in the right hand side and on tool bar windows. Whenever I resize the window the numbers change and they are extremely annoying.

Have been through all the settings and options and cannot find the 'Turn off the silly big red numbers everywhere' check box. Can anyone show me where this is please?

vs2010 window numbers

More annoying than silly big red numbers is debugging against IIS7 where visual studio just hangs and nothing will work again until a restart. Vista Business running 32 bit. VS2008 works fine on the same machine.

If anyone has any pointers or help for me it would be very much appreciated

A: 

Definitely looks like Fraps. VS2010 is written in WPF, and WPF uses DirectX to render everything, that is why Fraps putting its FPS meter on VS2010 window. Just disable Fraps.

ooh this sounds promising. Don't think I have an application called fraps installed but I'll see what I can find.....

thank you very much! My machine has a system tray tool called ATI tray tools and after some digging around I found the following page which allowed me to turn the FPS offhttp://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=446829I can look at why debugging against IIS crashes next but that should be a lot easier. Thanks again
