Framework and DX SDK versions

I'm trying to follow Derek Pierson's C# tank game tutorial series on Coding4Fun, but after installing the VB version of the code and trying to run it, I got 71 errors.

He said, for that lesson, that he updated to the August SDK.
I have the October SDK installed right now. Do I need to go back the the August update

Also, is this the latest version of the framework

.NET Framework 2.0 Configuration

(version 2.0.50727.42)

    Always use what the author/tutorial uses to avoid problems. Try that, then you'll know the new errors are from your code and setup.

    Yes, that fixed the problem. Thanks a bunch.
     The only little question I have now is, what is this error about It's easy enough to fix, but I don't understand why it is a problem.

    Far as I can tell, I'm now using the same setup as the tutorial.
    But still 98 errors.

    I saw the error messages that you are receiving on the post on Channel9... You will have to check the references for the directX assemblies that you are using. Make sure that you are not including the new DirectX assembly for the Beta Code.

    There will be two different versions of the Microsoft.DirectX assembly for the sample above make sure that you are using version 1.x.x.x assemblies and not the 2.x.x. The application should now work.
