Thats likely a problem with the makefile and build environment from the PPC version to the Win32 version. Your best bet would to be to create a new Win32 project and then just copy and paste your code to the new project. That way the environment variables are all set up correctly.

Going from any mobile device to win 32 is going to be murder. There are going to be lots of methods that you will have to change to be the win32 variant of that method. Also, you cannot just open your code and compile it for a win32 environment because the build system from windows mobile to win32 is different. If it is a large project then you should be able to just create a *new* win32 project, and copy the code files to your new win32 project and compile them one by one to see what errors you get. Then I would go through and look at all the API calls to see which will have to be changed to reflect the new win32 environment.
