c# 2010 on windows 8 problem after saving project

Hi

after saving my application, when I try to run it I get a strange message

"the operation could not be completed. The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."

and the application will not run again until I restart VS2010.  The problem then comes back when I make any changes and it saves before re-compiling.  not an ideal scenario

Anyone got any ideas what it going on here?

I should add that the project runs fine and does everything normally on my windows xp machine, it is just the windows 8 desktop that has issues, so it can't be the project at fault here...
just noticed that visual studio is using c.35% of my cpu even though the application is not being used, it just has my project loaded up... that's gotta be weird huh?
