I haven't got the time to test this at the moment, but I was recompiling the IBP ODBC driver yesterday - that required gds32_ms.lib and compiled successfully - so I doubt that the error is due to a corrupted file. I guess you have plenty of disk space.

A quick search in google suggests this may be the problem:

This problem has also been observed when using Visual Studio 5,
which was running without any Visual Studio service pack applied.
When using Visual Studio 5 this error can be caused by an
internal bug in Visual Studio. In this instance applying Visual
Studio service pack 3 cured the problem.
