[SDL] Problem sdl & visual studio 2005

Hi all! When I compile the program in visual studio 2005 under xp the program
starts without any problem. When I do tha same steps under Windows Vista I get
the same error noticed by the other user that is: 

...Unable to start program 'file name'
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is
incorrect. Review the manifest file for possible errors...

I found a workaround but it is very annoying. I mean, if I compile from the
command prompt using cl.exe and using only text files without manifest
components it works. Now I would know if there is a permanent solution to
compile directly from the visual studio 2005 editor. I think the problem is in
some settings put automatically by the editor. Has anyone the solution?

Thanks in advance.
