Solution 1

Can you post code here.
This would happen when you are converting one object type to another but there are mismatches in this conversion.

Yeahhhh..... got it
If this error is buzzing you then there is an easy solution for this. First Close all Visual Studio instances that are presently running. Open Windows registry editor (run -> regedit) and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0\Packages. There you will find a Key called SkipLoading. Check the value, it must be 0x00000001. Change it to 0x00000000 and you are done.
Just restart the Visual Studio and enjoy...
