visual studio .net general:
When I attempt to install the June CTP version of VS-2005 on my X64 verson of
WindowsXP it refuses to install unless I have SP2 installed, but when I try
to install SP2 in the X64 system it says it cannot install on this version.

I would like to try VS-2005 on my X64 system (as well as my X32 system) to
see performance/development differences. How am I to install it on my X64

Paul,

Probably not what you want to hear, but I gave up trying to install on my
Windows XP x64 box. Never got it working...

Carsten,

I just got a reply from Microsoft on another venue. Their reply was to
utilize FBDK#1 "Make you windows look like a SP2 or change Configuration
Files". Its available on this link -

I haven't tried it just yet, but it looks like it will work.

Paul
