ummm... install the SDK on that computer.

Sorry. Did you mean that you can't make directx games on that computer or that the games you made on the computer with the sdk install won't run on the computer without the sdk.

confused yet?

Does the computer with just the redist on it have the same or higher directx version number as the one with the sdk? That could be a simple solution.

I am making a game using direct draw in Visual C++ 6. It works perfectly on a system with the SDK installed, but I can't get it to run on a computer with just the redistributables.

Does anyone know a possible reason for this. I know it has to be something really simple.

Are you compiling a release version (non-debug)? Can you be more specific than "can't get it to run"? What exactly happens when you try to run it?
