Program terminate problem

I don't know if I am posting this in the right place or not. I am fairly new to Visual Basic , but have been having issues with the program. When I try to create a new project - The whole program just shuts down. It creates part of the project, but does not create the exe file.
I have reinstalled Visual Basic.Net and downloaded all windows updates. This happened before and I got an error then, and an update fixed the problem.
I am taking VB.Net in college and am unable to do any new projects. I can open any old projects fine.
Any help would be appreciated.
