You're working on an HP or Compaq computer.
[psychic debugging mode OFF]

I ran into exactly this oddball error the other day and blogged about it 
here:

http://www.nichesoftware.co.nz/blog/2011-05/496/invalid-build-configuration-debugbnb

To save you the click, here's the lowdown.

For reasons entirely unconnected with MSBuild, my HP Probook has the 
environment variable PLATFORM defined as BNB.

Unfortunately, MSBuild picks this up as the default target platform, and 
bombs out because your solution file only includes things like "Any CPU" 
or "x86".

The solution is to be explicit about the platform you want to compile 
for, by using the commandline parameter included in the error message:

/p:Platform="Any CPU"

Hope this is useful.
