LNK1209 error in "debug" build only

Hi,
I initially had VC++ ver 5.0
After installing VC++ ver 6.0 I keep getting the error

"LINK : fatal error LNK1209: program database
"C:\test\App1\Debug\App1.pdb" differs from previous link; relink or
rebuild"

This happens for any and every application that I build in DEBUG mode.
Even if I create a simple hello world application I get this error.

I noticed something interesting in my .dsp file. It has these 2 lines
# PROP BASE Use_MFC 5
# PROP Use_MFC 5

Notice that it says "5" when it should actually be "6". Traces of VC++
5.0 are somehow, i think still on my system even though i cleaned off
everything under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\De
vStudio\
before installing VC++ 6.0

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mel
