After I installed the update february 2005, I get this message in almost all my programs? dx9_primitive_types fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'd3dx9dt.lib'. Have this lib been removed in the update and how do I solve my problem?

Are you using VS6? If so, you're gonna need to download the SDK extras. Look for the "DirectX 9.0 SDK Update (February 2005) Extras" in the MS site.
Dubito, Cogito ergo sum.
In the February release D3DX has changed from being a .lib into a .dll - take a look a the release notes.

Thanks, I use VS 2003 C++. How can I solve the problem from lib to dll (I'm totally new at this)
right-click on your project in the solution explorer (the name of your project)
click Properties
go to Linker->Input
look at Additional Dependencies:
you need to change d3dx9dt.lib to d3dx9d.lib for the debug version
for the release version change d3dx9t.lib to d3dx9.lib

hope that helps
