Hello,

About a week ago, I upgraded my development laptop to Vista Ultimate
and Office 2007. After I reinstalled my Visual Studio 2005
Professional, I installed the VS 2005 SP1 update.

I still keep getting a message dialog box that states ...
Visual Studio 2005 SP1 requires and update for Windows Vista.

I have run the OS update manually, and reinstalled the SP1 and I am
still getting the error message. VS2005 seems to work fine, but I just
hate ignoring error messages (I like a clean running system).

I could just remove the check mark on the Always show this message so
I never see it again .. but before I do, I want to make sure that I am
not missing something.

Anyone have simular problems?

Did you install the patch to Vista for Visual Studio? This is from an old
post:

-------------------------------------
Note that after you intall VS2005 on Windows Vista, you should also install
VS2005 SP1. You may visit the following link to get VS2005 SP1.
'Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 (SP1)'
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/bb265237.aspx

In addition, you'd better install 'Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 Upate
for Windows Vista Beta' to get VS2005 to work better with Vista. You could
get it from the above link.

Here's the official information from Microsoft:
