When I try to start VS in my old Vista box I get error and the VS program fails to start.

could not load file or assembly 'MS VS,OLE.Interop,Version=7.1.40304.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' attempt made to load program w incorrect format.

Any help would be great. Thanks, Jim

It seems OLE.Interop dll is not present/not correct version in you bin folder or on gac (%windir%\assembly\gac). Check in both location and if not found get dll from below link and place respectively.
