I think there is a bug, because sometimes my autocomplete and intellisense stops working without warning. I have to toggle it off and on in setup then restart the whole system (not just vs) and then it works again.

Another option, you could try disabling the application data in your user profile for VS to return it to it's default settings. (i would rename the folder rather than deleting it... just in case :)

You better off using Code Block IDE which is very good as it isnt system hogs!

Any pointers as to what you're using and what's missing? C++? C#? VB? Can you get any intellisense/autocomplete at all? Is it a particular library you can't get prompts for or absolutely everything?
