    Armin,

    You're getting the message that states that there's no source code for the
    available location because you don't have symbols for the .NET framework.
    It sounds like by using F8 you're actually attempting to step into the code.

    You can do 2 things:

    1) Get symbols for the .NET framework: How to Get Symbols:
    http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/ddk/debugging/symbols.mspx. You can specify
    the location mentioned here as an additional directory to look for symbols.

    2) Use the debug menu and select Step Over to step over GC.Collect

    What's probably happening is that the debugger/VS.NET is throwing up a
    message box you can't see somewhere and it's blocking everything. One of
    the two solutions from above should resolve the problem you're having.

    Thanks! Robert Gruen
