dxguid.lib corrupt?

Hi.

I'm trying to use DirectInput8 from the October SDK edition with Visual c++ 6.0 and when I try and link dxguid.lib (in order to get IID_IDirectInput8) I get the error:
dxguid.lib(dxguid.obj) : fatal error LNK1103: debugging information corrupt; recompile module

Anyone else get this Or am I in a unique situation

Thanks in advance.

    Try recompiling using a newer C++ compiler.  This is the free Express edition for C++: http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/visualc/default.aspx

    VC 6.0 is unsupported. That's very clear in the readme.

    very clearly not so useful. Back to dx5 for me. At least that works fine. There might be some real truth to the whole conspiracy theory thing about designed obsolescence for the my bat/my ball conglomerate.

    Be that as it may that wie should use a newer compiler... but I' dont like to port my project to newer one... is there an other way to solve this problem
