Cannot Create a Asp.net MVC 2 project in Visual Studio 2008

Question

I Installed Microsoft's Asp.net MVC 2 using the Web PI (on Windows XP) but it is never marked as installed!

i have found the "system.Web.Mvc.dll" in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET MVC 2\Assemblies" so i'm pretty sure it's indeed installed but i cannot create a new Asp.net MVC project in Visual Studio 2008 because the option isn't there...

The problem might be because, i installed VS2010 Beta at first but uninstalled it when i saw it might not be possible to use MVC2 with it

Is the problem that the option doesn't appear on the "New Project" dialog, or is it that it's there but doesn't work? I have the same problem with the Platform Installer, but I can create an MVC 2 project. — ChrisF

You can download the VS 2008 tools and it will install the appropriate VS templates for MVC 2.
