It seems you do not have c++ and directx runtimes.

On top of the DirectX SDK you need the DirectX runtime, also June if I recall correctly, and you need the VC Redistributable for 2005, 2008, and 2010.

It seems a lot of people are having setup issues. These videos may help, even though the project is for something else:

I think if you follow those videos you will have everything set up for the Chili Framework.
