Error When Opening Form in Designer View

I just installed VB.NET on a PC running Windows XP. The install went fine, but when I start a new project and try and open form1.vb by either double clicking it or right click, View Desginer, I get the following error message:

The type initializer for "System.Drawing.SafeNativeMethods" threw an exception.

I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, repairing a few times and the same error still appears. I have gotten rid of spy ware with adaware in case this was causing it but the error still appears.
