    Well dear VS 2005 is more cautious about any errors you made even in HTML. You will be find a list of all the errors in Error List.

    Go to VIEW => Error List.

    Most of the error will be due to improper HTML tags. You may have forgottetn to end a TD/TR or Table.

    You may also need to perfect path for Images.

     Please try removing all temporary asp.net files.

    Location would be :

    C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files 

    If error are continue than try by reinstalling .net frame work

    I know this is not a correct way to solve the issue.. but some times its a handy and quick way.
