    Yes I installed from here:

    on VS2008 RTM.

    I followed the beta 2 uninstall process from there:

    Still have the problem, impossible to create a new SL project.

     Make sure you create .NET Framework 3.5 project. I'm not sure if Silverlight 1.1 is supported by .NET Framework 2.0

    I'm having the exact same problem too.  Just intalled the silverlight tools for vs2008, but I get a "Project Type not supported" error whenever I create a new silverlight project.  And yes its a 3.5 project.

    Please try running devenv /resetskippkgs. You should run it from a Visual Studio command prompt [ start it with Admin Rights on vista]. This will tell VS to forget any package load failures that have occured before.

    Hi All.

    I too had the same problem. I just uninstalled the VS2008 tools for Silverlight and reinstalled the same. It fixed the problem.
