You basically don't have something installed. That's why you get this error. I am very sure that you need to install the VS MVC project type - either MVC 2 or MVC 3. Use The Web Plaform Installer to install. The web platform installer can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/web/downloads/platform.aspx. Once you have installed it (it is only 2MB) you need to search for "MVC", install the MVC 2 and MVC 3 project templates.
