So with help from Benjamin Nitchke’s book and the dude himself, I got the XNA files to run under my Visual Studio Orcas Team Edition.
The trick is to create the project in the express edition, and then copy over the files replacing your existing VSpro project files. Main files to copy over are the Game1.cs and the Program.cs. Copy over the icon and png file too if needed. Then in VSpro add existing item, and add all those files.
Then you need to add 2 dll references manually -
Microsoft.XNA.Framework
Microsoft.XNA.Framework.Game
Lastly if you are on Vista x64 or XP x64, you need to goto the project properties –> Build –> change platform target to be x86. This is because XNA doesnt run under 64bit. Start debugging and all works!
