    I installed the DirectX SDK and I must be missing something. When I try the 'using Microsoft.DirectX;' I get an error. When I try to add a ref I don't find the DirectX anywhere. I did a search for the dll's associated with it and found nothing. I checked my system and it is installed. I can't get started. Running out of ideas here. Anybody else have issues or found a step not mentioned on the Microsoft web site? ...?

      That happened to me too. I'm only telling you to make you feel better, I can't remember what I did to fix it :(( I definitely reinstalled it, maybe that did it. My DLLs are located at C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Managed DirectX\

        As long as the managed components are installed you just need to find the DLL's and add references to them in your project. I started looking at DirectX a week or so ago, in the end i copied the DLL's from where they were to a folder on my root drive so i could reference them easier. Read the commetns at the end of the article on Managed Metroid Part 1, this helped me a lot. Kev Pearman MCP
