Could not load the Visual C++ component VCBuild.exe

I receiving this message on all of my VS2005 solution build steps now that i have upgraded to VisualBuild 7.2 (I believe i was at 6.6 previously)

The same build script now fails with

c:\kitzion-VS2005\\build\omUtilities\omUtilities.sln.cache(51 91,5): error MSB3411: Could not load the Visual C++ component "VCBuild.exe". If the component is not installed, either 1) install the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5, or 2) install Microsoft Visual Studio 2008.

I am unsure how it decides which MSBUILD - i can see with log command/Detailed logging the following command is being executed

Rebuilding configuration 'Unicode Release|Win32'...
Command: c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\msbuild.ex e c:\kitzion-VS2005\\build\omUtilities\omUtilities.sln /t:rebuild "/p:Configuration=Unicode Release" /p:Platform=Win32 /v:detailed
c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\msbuild.ex e c:\kitzion-VS2005\\build\omUtilities\omUtilities.sln /t:rebuild "/p:Configuration=Unicode Release" /p:Platform=Win32 /v:detailed
Microsoft (R) Build Engine Version 3.5.30729.1
[Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0.50727.3082]

which seems a bit odd (v3.5 rather than v2.0 which is what the solution is built with) ?

Any help would be appreciated - thanks.
