You did apply the VS 2005 service pack for Vista, right? An when you run
VS 2005, you have set the property Run As Administrator on the
short-cut or exe when starting VS?

Visual Studio 2005 runs on Vista. You will need to install sp1 AND
an additional Vista service pack but this should be prompted through the
installation routine.

Visual Studio 2003 will NOT run on Vista according to the docs and
I haven't found a way to make it do so.
