While attempting to use the Visual Studio 2010 debugger on an Xbox 360 ADK Reference application, I’m noticing that the watch values in the debug output are formatted strangely.
Once I earn enough reputation points (new user) I will post a screenshot.
The ‘value’ field should be a string however it starts with ‘0x004df938’. Because of this none of the visualizers are available to me.
NOTE: I do not have ‘Hexadecimal display’ enabled.
I have done a lot of searching and have only found one other issue close to what I am experiencing:

(the screenshot contained in the above link mirrors what I am seeing on my end)
The person who posed the problem changed their target platform (in the project configuration manager) from Any CPU to x86 but I was unable to do this (there is no x86 option available in the following UI):
Thanks in advance for the help.
There was a mismatch between the ADK and XDK versions installed on the machine. The system had the July release of the XDK and the April release of the ADK. Once I uninstalled the April version and installed the July version (July 2012 QFE ADK) my problems were resolved.
