Does anyone have any problems with VS2008 on Vista? For me every so often when I select items in the solution explorer the screen goes blank. No other application causes this to happen.

One of our guys had this problem. For some odd reason, check to see if your video drivers are up to date.

You are right, this is completely related to the video card / drivers.

Yup - I've just updated the Display adapters drivers (for me Radeon X1650 SE) and this has got it. Many thanks!

I originally had some issues with Visual Studio 2008 and Vista but not the type of problem you describe. Everything seemed to work fine once I installed the Vista compatibility updates. I would think that the latest SP would take care of this as well.
Thanks for the advise. However I've installed sp1 but its made no difference.
