Hey guys, let's try to answer the poster's question instead of bickering with one another. =) As for known issues between Visual Studio 2005 and Vista x64, I can't say I know since I've never used Vista x64. Rather, I was referencing MSDN (in my post above), noting that Vista x64 is not supported for .NET Framework 2.0 (as opposed to Visual Studio 2005).
I've yet to check this, but MSDN also notes: "For the most up-to-date information on system requirements and supported platforms, see the Readme.htm file for the .NET Framework. If you have installed the stand-alone SDK, the Readme file is located in the Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v2.0\subdirectory. If you have installed the .NET Framework as part of Visual Studio 2005, the Readme file is located in the Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK \v2.0 subdirectory." -Ivo On Sep 20, 6:46 am, Andrew Badera <[email protected]> wrote: > Really?
