problem with vc++ 6 appwizard

I am trying to learn mfc, but whenever I try to compile even an unmodified
skeleton program under appwizard I get 20 errors from the afxdisp.h file.
The errors have something to do with trying to do C linkage to the
overloaded functions. I have no idea why it is trying to link in C, there
are no 'extern "C"' commands associated with the errors in question. I
reinstalled visual studio and upgraded to the latest sp of vc++ 6 just to be
sure. I downloaded afxdisp.h from the microsoft website and compared it to
the copy installed with visual studio, just to see if my file was somehow
corrupt, but they're identical.

I am stuck on this one, nobody I know has seen such a problem. I don't even
know where to start.

I am running Visual Studio Enterprise Edition version 6.0 on Windows98SE.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

btw: I can compile and build api programs with no problem on the same
system.
