Hey, I've got a problem with Directx9, I hope someone can help me out.
When I create a Win32 Console application, I don't get any problems, but when I create a Directx9 application with C++ and open the application on another computer I get this error:
The application can not start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
(This is translated from Dutch to English so might not be the real text that the error says...
Does anyone know a solution? Do I need to add files to the application's folder? Do I need to change my source code?
This application is part of a Directx9 Tutorial.
This is the source code of the application:
