Have you checked the following statement on the Scottgu’s blog…
VS 2008 SP1 adds richer JavaScript intellisense support to Visual
Studio, and adds code completion support for a broad range of
JavaScript libraries.
The jQuery intellisense annotation support will work great with VS 2008 SP1.
First you need correct patch KB958502 – JScript Editor support for “-vsdoc.js” IntelliSense doc. files. Install it and use as:
my script tag said
<script type="text/javascript" source="Scripts/jquery-x.js"></script>
then follow these reference links:

To detect the file as an intellisense, you need to have at least SP1 of Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 Express. You can find it here
As per a blog post. You should do something like this
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>.
<% if(false) { %>
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery-1.7.1-vsdoc.js"></script>
<% } %>
