Hey guys,
i know taht theres a huge issue with the summer update, and how it doesnt work on vs.net 2002...etc

i found a solution while searching for GameDev:

1) MAKE SURE you uninstall the previous version of your SDK, it didnt work for me when i didnt uninstall
edit: oh yeah... after uninstalling, install the Summer Update :p

2) Go to the directory where you extracted the SDK Setup files, and then go to: Developer Runtimes | Managed DirectX | Debug (or retail if you want) | and run the short setup file there

3) Open Regedit(Start | run | "Regedit")
Navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\7.1\AssemblyFolders\
Right clikc the "AssemblyFolders" Icon and select New | Key
name it DirectXAssemblies

4) go to the DirectXAssemblies folder and double click the key in there which says "(default)"
and type in the path to your DLL's:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Managed DirectX\v9.00.0900

this made the summer update work for me :D

Hope that helps,
Pent
