I haven't had this problem, but I do have one too. I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium and when I loaded Visual Studio C++, and tried to complie a program, I get the following:

1>Linking...
1>.\Debug\Hi World.obj : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'x64' conflicts with target machine type 'X86'

When I went into the setup options and changed the machine setting, I got a similar error:

1>Linking...
1>.\Debug\Hi World.obj : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'x86' conflicts with target machine type 'X64'

It would appear that Visula Studio thinks that I am trying to complie a 32 bit program for a 64 bit application or vice versa.

Any ideas or do I have a $250 bookend?
