Hello,

I am trying to install the Starter Kit.  But I am getting the same error for each of the instalation items.

"Installation stopped because the directory for the ProjectType value did not exist.  The project type is invalid for your installation of Visual Studio."

I read a thread on these boards that said to make sure SP 1 was installed for Visual Studio.

In the About section in VS it says this:

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Version 8.0.50727.42  (RTM.050727-4200)
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 2.0.50727 SP1

Installed Edition: Professional

I see "SP1" and I'm assuming that means I have SP1.

I'm not having much luck researching other places and am a bit stuck.

Any advice would be most helpfull. 

Thanks!
