I am getting this error on comppile of a VS 2005 VB project. I have pointed
the system dlls to the Framework64 folder so as to run the app in 64bit mode
referencing the 64bit Framework libraries
 
Yes the machine is a dual Processor AMD Opteron running Windows Server 2003
Standard x64 Edition.
 
Then I would suspect that both the 32-bit and the 64-bit Framework libraries
are being referenced. You might look a little deeper into your VS 2005
configuration and look for this type of situation.
 
I don't think so. This is the vbproj file details:-

Is there anywhere else I should be looking for the problem you mention.

Did you have any beta version installed on this machine? If so and the
uninstall was completely thorough, this could be a source of your problem.
