Help! [Fixed, Solved]

[Arashi]

Right, I got stuck in the first lesson... >_>

Getting this error after i Build the Solution:

1>LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

Help?

BTW: I'm not THAT new to C++, if it makes any difference. Also, I unzipped the file with WinRar. May that be the problem?

EDIT #1:

I just want to mention that I have installed both DirectX SDK (June 2010) and Visual C++ 2010 Express, and the Redistrabutable.

Edit #2:

Tried unzipping it with WinZip (Because it's a .zip file) but it didn't make a difference. Reinstalled DirectX SDK and Visual C++ 2010, no difference. I bet the error is something really stupid...

Edit #3:

Deinstall the 4.5 (or any other 4+) version of .NET, and install the 4.0. WORKED!

Do you have .NET 4.5 installed?

[Arashi]

Yes. Reinstalled it, fixed nothing. :/

[Conflictus]

That may be your problem. From what i've read .NET 4.5 can cause problems for visual studio 2010. Removing it and replacing it with .NET 4.0 should fix everything.

Ahh! I'll post the results, once my download's over.

It worked! Thank you so much! =D
