Stefan. Rebuild the machine,
Just installed Service Pack 1 for VS2005 today, felt like rebuilding
the machine, no less. It took about 85 minutes, at least twice as
long as the initial installation of VS2005, Guidancy Automation
Extensions and Toolkit and the VS2005 SDK it was patching took.

Microsoft blur the distinction between their apps and the OS. Any
install of an MS app can break your machine. The only safe way to work
with the stuff is under vmware or an equivalent.
That way the hour and a half system install is just one window on your
desktop being out of action.
