Windows Mobile 2005 App Fails to Compile

[Vlad#]

Hi,

I wanted to try out some development for the Windows CE 5.0 platform so
downloaded the SmartPhone SDK from Microsoft and started up a new
project with a blank form. This is virtually a blank project, I will
want to do some networking when I get the program to compile though. I
am using Visual Studio 2005 RTM (Target is set to Windows Mobile 5.0
SmartPhone Emulator)

The build error I get is this:

Warning 1 An internal error occurred in PlatformVerificationTask.
System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for
'Microsoft.CompactFramework.Build.Compiler.CoreSys temTypes' threw an
exception. ---> System.TypeInitializationException: The type
initializer for
'Microsoft.CompactFramework.Build.Compiler.Assembl yReference' threw an
exception. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: This implementation
is not part of the Windows Platform FIPS validated cryptographic
algorithms.
