ASP.NET MVC Freezes Visual Studio while creating a new project
I am using VS 2008 Service Pack 1 (SP1), on WinXP Pro, and I have successfully installed the Microsoft MVC package. I start a new project, select the MVC web project type and give it a name and folder. When I press it hangs up forever.
The "ProjectName" folder has been created, but there is nothing else.
I can create and open all my other projects without any problem.
Any ideas which is causing this problem? I can't try the MVC framework if I can't build the project!

If you are using Process Monitor and Process Explorer you can probably see what VS is expecting.

I had a similar problem: Instead of uninstalling the Visual Studio add-ins, I tried to fix it.
I found this blog post on the VS team: http://blogs.msdn.com/webdevtools/archive/2009/03/03/hotfix-available-for-asp-net-mvc-crashes-with-azure-power- commands-resharper.aspx
which points to a fix:
He works!
