VS 2005 Beta 2 Emulator deployment problem.
I developed a simple "Hello World" application for Windows Mobile 5.0 for Smartphone with VS2005 Beta 2. Then, I ran the program in debug mode. The application compiles fine but the deployment fails. Here is the content of the "output" window:
Build started: Project: myTest, Configuration: Debug Any CPU

All attempts to connect to the deployment target at port 5654 have failed. Addresses attempted:

If target is an emulator, connection failed because no virtual switch driver is detected. Reinstall Device Emulator package. For more information, see Troubleshooting topics in Visual Studio Help.
Connect to device failed.

After quite an amount of googling, I couldn't find a fix to this problem. My setup is as follows:
Windows XP SP2, Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2, ActiveSync 4.0, Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK for Smartphone, Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK for Pocket PC; installed in that order.I have even tried ActiveSync 3.8 with same problem.
Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Manu.
