How about the actual error message, which must be a line above or something?

You need a more recent version of Visual C++. From the installation notes for the DirectX SDK (November 2008):
Even if it were not an actual requirement, I would equally encourage you to use the latest version of Microsoft's C++ compiler, as VC++ 6 is really, really obsolete.
You can freely download VC++ 2008 Express Edition from here.
