Hi Ryan, Yes, I do. The microsoft DirectX setup installer does not ship with the DirectX 8 libraries for Visual Basic 6. Those libraries were dropped from the setup program clear back in 2007 or so. Right after Windows Vista was released and Microsoft dropped all support for Visual Basic. The only way to get those libraries now is to manually install them yourself on Windows Vista/Windows 7, or to run Jim Kitchen's Winkit setup, and reboot. There is no official way to get those DirectX libraries any more.
