VB6 --> VB 2005 upgrade ...IDE now VERY slow!!!

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Yesterday I ran the Visual Basic Upgrade Wizard for a VB6 app. There
were many errors and warnings, more or less what I was expecting, so I
have been working through these. The problem is that the IDE is SO
PAINFULLY SLOW. When I create a new line or make any modifications to
the code and move to the next line, I have to wait 1-2 seconds before I
get the cursor back.On pressing carriage return, the CPU spikes up to
80%. Is there any way around this?! Is it because of all those errors
and warnings that it is trying to refresh? In my googling I found that
MS Knowledge Base article KB917452 and KB920805 more or less addressed
my issue, so I contacted MS and got the Hotfix. But that made no
difference. I have tried disabling statement completion, smart
indenting...no effect. The project really isn't even that big @ 40 or
so classes and modules. I have an average development system (2.8GHz,
1GB RAM, Win XP Pro). When I ran the machine in safemode, the IDE was
perfectly responsive. That may lead you to think that I am running a
bunch of crap in the background, but I am not.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Marcus
