I'm a really beginner but I'm going to tell you my expirence with this. Because yesterday I was asking my self (and to a lot of people to

) the same: "where is the gacutil.exe?
This firs is that in a correct installation of Visual Studio this utility is in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bin", you also can use it with the "Visual Studio Command Promnt" from "Visual Studio Tools". IF IS NOT THERE, be sure that your installation is not correct.
What I did?
1.- Uninstall Visual Studio with this tool (or follow the instruction): http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/bb968856.aspx
2.- Uninstall .NET Framework (all version) with this tool: http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/pages/8904493.aspx
3.- Read the Visual Studio Readme before installing againg. The are some notes like desactivate windows update during instalation that are very recommended.
4.- Install Visual Studio
Now I have the util!
If you want to try other solution maybe this is useful:
