Hi again,
Further investigation shows it is only 1 project that was affected.
Hmm..... Just so happens to be the largest app I've got source too...

Hey again,
Well I've manged to fix it, for some reason or another "C:\" was being
added as a reference path, normally that wouldn't matter!
But it appears there is a "System.exe" in that path! WTF?! "File
Compare Utility - Microsoft Corporation", original filename "comp.exe".
Is this a virus targeted at Visual Studio????! WTF?!
Nick.

Hi there,

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind
failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Microsoft.Common.targets
1306 9 ...
------------------------------------------------
I have checked the references for the application this is occuring in
and for some reason or another I have a whole list of items that have
"<The System cannot find the referecne specified>"... Most of these had
a duplicate item below with the correct path in, so I removed the missing
ones but I am now left with "System". If I remove this reference and add
it again it still fails to find it!
Please help! What's goning on? I first noticed things started to go
wrong when the compiler crashed during compilation.
I seriously need to get this working ASAP, has anyone got any words on
this? Thanks loads in advance!
Nick.
