Problem :

Without spending any time at looking for that .lib I'm sure that it exists in tha sdk - There would be NO reason why microsoft should remove that file. So you only have to search for it.

If it is realyl removed (I don't belive that) you might should try an older version of the sdk - try google for one

and now:

Happy Coding :-D

It has been removed !!! I had the same problem myself.

To check

cd c:\
dir dinput*.lib /s /b

I think it can be fixed by using dinput8.lib instead of dinput.lib, if i remember correctly.

what worked for me is renaming the dinput8.lib to dinput.lib. then place it somewhere the lib path will find it. ex in your clanlib include directory.
