Hi, I have a problem compiling the "pjproject.sln", and I have the following error appearing:

"fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'dsound.lib'"
Build log was saved at "file://c:\Users\SLF101\Desktop\PJ Project\pjproject-2.0.1\pjmedia\build\output\pjmedia_test-i386-Win32-vc8-Debug\BuildLog.htm".

Could anyone help me solve that problem? It seems like it does not want to open the "dsound.lib" file everywhere.
That is the whole error message I got.

Could anyone help me as it is really important to compile that code for my dissertation? Thanks

Well, where is dsound.lib??? If it's not in one of the standard compiler's lib folder you will have to tell the compiler where to find it.
