    When it comes to GacUtil, you should run it from a cmd prompt since it has no GUI.

    Another way would be to create a Setup & Deployment project in VS2008. At least if you want to install it on multiple machines. It will also be easier to uninstall/reinstall. You will have to add the "Global Assembly Cache" to the File system in the S&D project, add the DLL as output and set the install folder to GlobalAssemblyCache. Build and install. That´s it.
