Thank you so much for posting this. I have reinstalled VS 2008 two time and updated SP1 and .NET 3.5 and rebooted and copied so many projects to and from VS 2005 because of this problem and you have fixed it for me. Thanks for taking the trouble to post this message. You have helped me a lot. Best wishes.

Very cool! This fixed my problem completely. Now I can rewrite the convoluted code the other developers wrote.

Just have to say, considering this was written OVER a year ago and it is STILL the only solution to this problem. Which incidentally worked for me like a charm, design and split view now work rediculously fast (about normal for other programs!) AND doesnt crash. We were about to give up on .net becuase of Visual Studio. Yes I know know 'coders' shouldnt need design view, but it sure as hell helps for the designers who work with them. I NEVER post but in this instance, I have to say thank you. You literllay saved our team from moving away from .net (which I prefer). THANKS!

Hello,

I've changed the Path as you show, but Visual Studio Web Design still freezes! I've un-installed Office completely from machine. The only FPCUTL.DLL on the machine is located in "Microsoft Web Designer Tools." Is there a dump I can send you?

Well, if you have an MSDN subscription (or have bought some MS product in a store) you have a few free Incidents (4 with MSDN subscription, 2 with the box bought in a store), no fee needed.... :-)

I have same problem, but I don't have MS Office. I fixed the problem by using repair option on the Web Designer.
