How do you do it ? Please post some code so that i can search for your failure. With DX6 you can take advantage of a new interface by querying for it like this:
LPDIRECTDRAW pDD;
LPDIRECTDRAW4 pDD4;
DirectDrawCreate(NULL, &pDD, NULL);
pDD->QueryInterface(IID_IDirectDraw4, (LPVOID*)&pDD4);
pDD->Release();
You should always check the return value with the SUCCEEDED or FAILED macros so that you can see where the failure happened.

Example, I get this error:
error C2664: 'Direct3DRMCreate' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'struct IDirect3DRM3 ** ' to 'struct IDirect3DRM ** '
Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast
I can´t get the new interface! I have included the lib.directorie and the include.directori in the Option menu. I have used the #pragma comment to include ddraw and d3drm. I have #included d3drm.h and draw.h.
