Problem with Visual Studio

[Xarky]

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the correct group were I should have posted
this message. So sorry for any problems created.

I am currently using Visual Studio .Net 2003. When I do as follows
the following error is being given.

File->New->Project, and then I choose Visual C# Projects and a
Windows application. I give the name and location and press OK. The
following error is being given "ClassFactory cannot supply requested
class". I have also tried to create a Console application instead of
windows application, but the same problem persists. The same problem
is given also when trying another programming language such as C++.

The problem seems to have started after I have installed Service
Pack 2 for Windows XP.

Can someone give help about my problem and how to fix it.

Thanks in Advance

Have you tried running the "Repair" option on VS.NET?

Sorry for my ignorance. Can you please tell me where the Repair
option is because I can't find it.

A complete Repair was done. No errors were reported. A new project
was tried to be started, but the problem persisted.

What else can be done to fix the problem?

I searched on MSDN with the error given. The following link was found
which seems to be my problem.
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;303454

I read this site it tells to install a component of Service Pack 1, by
following the link given at the bottom of the page. If found the
given link but there seems to be no components of Service Pack 1, but
of Service Pack 3?

Can someone give some assistance to solve my problem pls.
Thanks in Advance
