Why does my linker brings up errors in projects that work fine at my collegues ?

I installed last week a new Windows XP on my PC and today Teststand and Labview/CVI. I choosed all the default options and additional  the SDK files.

When I try to compile a very simple project of my colleague I get error messages from the linker as shown below. We have no idea why this happens. The projects works on different PC. There were no special confuguration necessary in the past.  The only difference is that my colleague uses an older version of CVI.

What's wrong? Can anybody help?

Thank you very much!

Even if I create a new project and try to make I get the same erros.
So I can be sure it has nothing to do with project settings but with the installation of CVI

Try repairing the CVI installation. If that does not work, uninstall CVI, make sure all the CVI folders are deleted from ..\Program Files\National Instruments\ and install it again.

I hope this helps.
