Don't even try to convert a VS2010 project to VS2008 - it almost certainly won't work: downgrades rarely do!

Instead, create a new project in VS2008 and add your source files from the VS2010 project one by one. It should pick up most things, but you may have to add the references by hand. Just don't expect .NET 4 and above features to work, because VS2008 does not support them.
