I get this error message in VS 2005 when compiling Vista icon:
..\File.rc(623) : error RC2176 : old DIB in res\main.ico; pass it through
SDKPAINT

Using VS 2005 with latest SP1 for Vista

try rc.exe from the Windows Vista SDK (but I do not think this works, so
feel free to skip trying this)

or resource builder 2.6.2 (advertised support for Vista icons)

or use an icon replacement tool such as:

(codeproject article for the above is here: )
