Thanks, Dave. <br><br>At first I was wondering how I missed it, so I went back and re-downloaded the Direct3D samples ZIP files. When I unzipped it, there it was in the prereques section, clear as day. <br><br>However, the readme file I was using was dated September 16, 2006, 12:36:38 PM and doesn't have those instructions in the Pre-req section. The correct readme file is dated Friday, December 01, 2006, 9:45:54 AM and has this information.
<br><br>I wish I could remember where I got a hold of the outdated file so whoever is in charge of the website can track it down. <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Jan 7, 2008 2:14 PM, Dave Fugate <<a href="mailto:dfugate@microsoft.com">
