Visual Studio 2008 Redraw/Repaint VERY VERY Slow

Question

 

My Visual Studio 2008 gets to the point where it redraws grid lists-  Code Analysis, Test View, etc. - very, very slowly.  It is slow enough to be disruptive.  Has anyone else encountered this problem?  I do not know how to fix this.

 

Thanks

Answer 1

You can do the following steps to deal with the case:
1. Reboot the machine into Safe Mode. Do we still have the problem? This can isolate some third party application/driver’s interference.
2. If we switch to try a new user account, do we have the problem? This can rule out the possibility of corrupted user profile.
3. Do we have any third party add-ins loaded? Disable them with “Tools” | “Add-in Manager…” or run devenv /safemode

4. Try to run devenv /ResetSettings to isolate the VS setting problem.
