Use blend 3.0 software for GUI Developement. Visual studio2008 only preview available, in design mode you cant change anyhting.

Hi,
When you say, GUI, Do you mean that Design Window is not displayed? If yes, refer this thread. It may help you out-

hi,
Install Microsoft Expression Blend 3 + SketchFlow Trial
Expression Blend 3 + Sketchflow allows designers to graphically create UI’s for Silverlight 3 applications.

Or play around with VS 2010 Beta 2 (free download from Microsoft is available). Works pretty well, pretty stable, and has a nice GUI designer for Silverlight :)
PS. You also don't have to install separate SL Tools, everything's fully integrated now.
PS2. I'm using VS 2010 by itself, but from what I heard it should work nicely side by side with VS 2008.
