VS 2010 IntelliSense Crashing Bug (and Patch!)

Just a quick heads-up, in case you’re having issues with Visual Studio 2010 Release Candidate crashing when you use IntelliSense, there’s a bug in the RC that apparently is affecting primarily those with tablet PCs, external Wacom tablets, multi-touch drivers, or screen readers. Scott Guthrie writes about the issue here and here.

I was running into this myself earlier this week, so I’m delighted to note that there is a patch now available for this issue. It’s linked in Scott’s follow-up post above, but if you want to jump directly to the patch, it’s here.
