MS Visual C++ Learning Ed. Won't Compile Anything!!

Even after I uninstalled/reinstalled, I can't compile any Win32 console
application, even previously working programs.

All I get in the output window is 1 error with no explanation attached, such
as...
--------------------Configuration: SomeProject 1 - Win32
Debug--------------------

SomeProject 1.obj - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

I need to figure out why this error occurs and how to fix it. I've tried
everything, and am now very pissed off, because I don't want to have to buy
another compiler, since MSVC++5.0 worked perfectly fine before. No one I've
talked too, including computer science TA's at the University of Washington have
any idea what could be wrong.

One clue I've noticed, is when I had it so that it ran completely off the CD, it
gave the same error as it did with the CD in as it did off, so I think it has
some problem to do with linking to the files needed to create an .obj file. I am
totally stumped, and I can't make any programs, because of it. Even Microsoft
won't help me, because of some expiration date on service.

Someone please help, or tell me where I can get help!!
