I'm running VS2008 on Vista, and I keep having crashing issues. It usually happens when I'm doing some kind of symbol search activity. All of the sudden I get a message that VS has stopped working and will need to reboot. I'm not sure exactly what is happening, but it is quite annoying.

When you say symbol search what do you mean? Are you using the IDE find dialog?
If you are using a 64bit OS you may be seeing this problem:

The FAQ includes details of the hotfix from Microsoft that fixes this particular problem.

It seems to happen when I do a "Find All References" and click on one of the references. I'm using 32-Bit Vista and VSTS 2008. The link you gave me applies to WS 2003 or XP, but nothing is said about Vista. Also, this works fine when VAssistX isn't installed.

Errors in the message queue:
.NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.1434 - Fatal Execution Engine Error (7A06491A) (0)

and

Faulting application devenv.exe, version 9.0.21022.8, time stamp 0x47317b3d, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6001.18000, time stamp 0x4791a7a6, exception code 0xc0000374, fault offset 0x000b015d, process id 0x1470, application start time 0x01c8f34cc8a7fb56.

A minidump could be useful. It might show where the bug is, but it might only show the result of the bug.

You can submit it here:
http://www.wholetomato.com/support/contact.asp

reference topic 8069 in the subject

Please also include the system info from the VA options dialog.
