Crashes all over!

Since downloading the released(?) version of SQL and Visual Studio 2005, my Visual Studio environment crashes quite often when doing Reporting Services work(and this was a clean install after a hard drive format). ASP.Net and other VS tasks work fine - it seems to be just Reprting Services that is buggy. Here are the instances in which it crashes:
- The most frustrating is when I'm trying to design a report based on stored procedures with parameters, if the parameters aren't wired up correctly and you hit preview report, Visual Studio crashes. This probably happened 20-30 times yesterday - so much that I've had to revert to a machine with Beta 2 to get some work done.
- When entering the Query Editor during the report wizard, if you click the design veiw button a couple of times too quickly, it crashes.

Also, when I start the new report wizard, I can't base a report on a Stored Procedure, only text is available (the dropdown is greyed out).

All this is happening on multiple machines with the new build (9.00.1399.06).

Is anyone else having this problem? Did I get the wrong download? Is there some type of fix for this?

Thanks for any help.

Trent...if the parameters aren't wired up correctly and you hit preview report, Visual Studio crashes.

This is a known issue. It will be fixed in SP1.

This is intentional. The query designer in the Wizard can only be used to create text queries.
