I get the following fatal error: LNK1106: invalid file or disk full: cannot seek to 0x3b16078a I get this error for adding a ddraw.lib (retail directx9) to my project. Why this happanes? I think it''s because visualC5 cant handle these lib files. I also had another problem that UINT_PTR wasnt defined for dinput.h I had included all the stdlib.h windows.h stdio.h before including dinput.h but it didnt help so I defined UINT_PTR myself. Perhaps it has something to do with the fatal error. Anyone have any idea what causes the fatal error? I would appreaciate your help on this matter.

I believe this is because the linker that comes with VC5 can''t handle the new version of lib files Microsoft introduced at some point, I think it was VC6.

I think to correct the problem you need the latest service pack but i''m not 100% certain of that.
