I'm glad to hear that.

Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows Server 2008 and
.NET Framework 3.5 Release Notes
(...)

3. Supported Compiler, Platforms, and Related Software

This release of the Windows SDK supports Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
SP1, Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Express Editions and the Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Express
Editions. Express Editions of Visual Studio are available to download
from the Visual Studio Express site, free of charge.

This release of the Windows SDK supports x86, x64, and IA64 platforms
for building and running applications on Windows XP SP2, Windows
Server 2003 R2, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008.

This is pretty clear to me that Windows XP + VS2005SP1 + Windows 2008
SDK love each others. I don't understand what you don't understand
about this statement that I had referred to earlier. I'm sorry you had
issue with building Chromium but as I said, once you installed a new
SDK _and_ registered it (very important part), you need to clobber
your Debug & Release directory before building again. Second, you can
just build the chrome_exe project, no need to build the whole tests
for trying out. It's much faster.

Sorry if my tone was harsh but since you were making false statements,
I had to reply directly to make sure other potential contributors
don't get confused.
