Catacomber:
What compiler should I try for this: Java? 

Weraustinne:
Thats is DX8 missing files problem.
Try the DX 8 SDK, because the error is missing DirectX 8 files, so this [ http://www.darwinbots.com/numsgil/dx81sdk_full.exe ] should help you.
You need in the Visual Studio 2008 set the path to the header files of DX 8 SDK.
Another problem may be the Visual C ++ 2005 Redist. installed together with Visual Studio 2008. (Try to uninstall the VS C + + 2005 Redist..) 
Please write how to this help.

Mnemonic:
Cat, please see the enclosed readme file for info on compilers. And it's C++, not Java.

Catacomber:
Mnemonic, thank you.  If I use the DX 8 SDK will it overwrite my current later version DirectX files?  Do I have to put it in a special place---like the compiler?  I've done this before to run something but forgot what I did and whether my DirectX current version was wiped out.

Thanks for your help.
