But if I try and make a project in eVC3.0 for ppc2002 (which is what i need to target to make my app work on all 2002 and 2003 devices), I get the following error.

I've done google searches, searches on here, and all I come across is tons of people with the same problem but no answer.

I've uninstalled everything, and reinstalled it in the microsoft recommended order (AS, tools 3.0, evc4.0, ppc2003 sdk), still no go. This is driving me nuts!
BTW, if I try to test connection on my PPC2002 device in the platform manager it fails saying "Unable to load device side components. Please check server configuration settings". If I try to test the connection on the PPC2003 device, it connects fine.
If I build a ppc2002 exe in devstudio and manually copy it over, it works fine...but obviously that means I cant debug and its a real pain in the ass getting the error every time I build.
