It shows up sometimes and recompiling makes it go away but sometimes, I have to restart to make it work.

No, the error is because of Visual studio.
You don't need a manifest in your application, so you can disable this step if you want.

Open up the properties for your project. Set 'Configuration Properties->Linker->Manifest File->Generate Manifest' to No.

Ok, I did it, but what was that doing and why did I disable it?

Edit: I did that but now when I compile and run, I'm getting an error box saying MSVCR90D.dll was not found. Re-installing the app may fix this problem.

Edit: That error only shows up in one of my DGDK programs but the other one is fine.

It may be that the one that does work is compiled in release mode, and can find the relevant DLL in the system32 folder. Oh well, you'll have to re-enable it for now then.

I've done a little investigation (google), and it appears this may be a problem caused by your antivirus program. It's scanning the file immediately after the linker has created it, and just before the manifest is added to it - this causes the manifest to fail because it can't open the file for writing.

See if you can flag the program 'mt.exe' in your AV as a trusted program so that your AV doesn't double-check everything it does.

Put this line immediately before the include of dinput.h to get rid of this useless warning:
