Ok. First, I'm not sure if you should dynamically link with ATL because it works without on my PC.
Second, can you look in VC++ 2005 Express under Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > Show directories for: Library files and ensure you have added the ATL directory from the Windows Driver Kit there? Something like C:\WinDDK\6001.18002\lib\atl\i386 (may be different on you PC if you downloaded WDK 7). I looked back at my HOWTO and saw I did not include that step. Let me know if it works for you and I'll update it. Thanks! -- Dominic. On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 10:51 AM, PhistucK <phist...@gmail.com> wrote: > OK, so I am trying with Visual C++ 2005 Express.
