Having similar problem. Removed the three references (DarkGDK, lib and plug-ins.) Re-added them and it found them.
However, I got the following error message:
______________________________________________________
System.InvalidOperationException was unhandled

I'm running Windows 7, Release Candidate 1, 64 bit.
Fresh download of Visual Basic Express and DirectX August (2009) runtime.
Looks like DarkGDK installed in Program Files (x86) instead of the 64 bit Program Files folder, which should be just fine.
Any thoughts?
