I had the same problem, but I solved it by switching to OpenGL and Linux.

Currently I decreased my average developementtime with about half, and increased performance with 4%.
Not bad.

I will never use Microsoft products anymore, just support portability to Windows.

Good luck with your hard work ...

The SDK itself is an executable. Once executed it will unzip itself into a specified temp directory. By default this is c:\mssdk\ . In that subdirectory you will find a setup.exe file. It may be under c:\mssdk\bin\ or one of the other directories. But it is there.

As for the OpenGL comment....buddy don''t waste my time.
