Failed to Create Class Error

I Working with Visual Studio 2005 Standart Edition (Academic edition, EN), and i got every time i want to create a new Class in the classdesigner an "Failed to create class" error. Drag and Drop classes from the Classview or Files form the Solution-Explorer works without problems.

It was a clean Installation, no Beta2 install. Only Windows XP SP2, Visual Studio Express C# German edition, .Net Framework 2.0 & 1.1 in german also both SDKs in German. I installed Visual Studio without the MSDN Lib..

Visual Studio Version is 8.0.50727.42 (RTM.050727-4200);
.Net Framework version: 2.0.50727

    Hi there,

    this happens if the languages of your windows installation and VisualStudio differ. Looks like you have an English version of VisualStudio, possibly running on a German version of Windows...

    In VisualStudio, go to Options/Environment/International Seetings and switch the language from "Windows" to the language of your VisualStudio installation, restart VisualStudio and enjoy class modeling... .

    Thanks to Nicolai Stoy, who figured this out originally.

    You need have VS2005 Standard edition or above to run class designer. Express is not a supported sku.
