Eliminate annoying IDE popup
If you are compiling with the IDE and keep getting a popup along the lines of "improve microsoft visual studio performance" Either
- To hide on XP or 2003 Server, right-click on the Task Bar | Select Properties | Select Taskbar tab | select Hide inactive icons | Click Customize | Set the Behavior for item "Improve Microsoft Visual Studio" to "Always hide".
Or
- Follow the registry edit instructions just before "Was this information helpful?" at this link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/981741
Note: This second method did not work for me.

Order of installing
I got errors during the installation of the directX SDK. the problems occured while it was installing the c++ Runtimes (which have already been installed before). So here is what i did to fix this:
- remove all 2010 installations
- install the DirectX SDK (June 2010) (that also installs the redistributable packages)
- Install the Visual C++ 2010 Express
- Install Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4
- Run Microsoft Update
