Hi all. I''m having a problem using VC++. Following the examples and instructions in Tricks of Windows Game Programming Gurus, I though I had my compiler ready to compile Directx programs. My source file compiles ok but i get this message when it tries to link: console.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _IID_IDirectDraw4 Can someone tell me what''s going on?

Link with dxguid.lib and everything will (probably) compile fine.

Try to link dxguid.lib

(Someone always types faster than me...)
