I was trying to edit an unghosted master page (in content db) in MOSS 2007 and SPD froze and crashed each time I tried to save my changes. I solved this problem using the below technique. System Environment (VS.NET 2008 SP1, SPD SP1, Win2k8 R2 64bit, SQL Server SP3 64 bit)
Connect and open the master page with SPD then make a copy of the master page you wish to change. Open and Edit it with VS.NET 2008 from within VS.NET from the context menu open the master page with SPD and save your changes to SP master page library. Then set as custom then default master.

Web Parts Not working in IE8 MOSS 2007
Ok so if you have a public facing SP Portal you have probably noticed in IE 8 that things stop working (for example the content editor web part button) in MOSS 2007 SP2 the good people at MS have of course 2010 coming out soon which I would expect will handle this better in the meantime you can add a statement to your Master pages to run in IE 7 compatibility mode
You will need to add the following HTTP response header into your master page <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7"> or click the compatibility button beside the refresh button green rectangle with angled line through it.
XHTML 1.0 compliance how close will SharePoint Server 2010 come.
