Supported Windows compilers in CUDA

I am a complete novice CUDA programmer trying to get started, and I am encountering the issue mentioned here with version 5.5

"clean" error with CUDA 5.5 in Visual Studio 2010 Express

Can anyone confirm that this is an issue with version 5.5 only? Is there an earlier version that I can install e.g. 5.0, that will allow nvcc to work with the Visual Studio 10.0 Express version compiler under 64-bit Windows 7?
