&lt;P&gt;Open a Visual Studio 2008 command prompt and run the following command:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;devenv /setup&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It will take awhile for this command to complete, but afterwards, the issue should be resolved.&amp;nbsp; &lt;A class="" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ex6a2fad(vs.80).aspx" target=_blank mce_href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ex6a2fad(vs.80).aspx"&gt;Here is documentation&lt;/A&gt; on the /setup switch if you would like to know more about it.&lt;/P&gt;
