I am trying to follow along with a tutorial on 3dbuzz.com with visual studio 2005 professional. At one point they want me to reference the winmn.lib file in the properties for the solution. When I follow their direction I compile tot he subjected error. I search for the file and get no results. I looked online and find that you need the platform sdk to get that file. The platform SDK does not install for me. It gets to component registration (about 1/6th across the progress bar) and rolls back and says it cannot continue (no details).<br/><br/>When I try to get help for the timeGetTime call, help references an entrely different file. Trying that file (and including the right header) still gives the error (just .lib file changed). <br/><br/>Some troubleshotting on forums said to set the paths properly for the file locations. All the options for setting the paths say they are gathered from PATH or LIB. <br/><br/>When you are setting paths in VS, does it alter the variables for the system? And if not, is there a way to restore them to defaults?<br/><br/>Thanks
