Where to find cuda.rule files for cuda 4.1

I am a beginner in CUDA,I am trying to run the examples given in GPU Computing SDK but it is giving me following error.

File: C:\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.1\C\src\vectorAdd\vectorAdd_vs2008.vcproj Line: 22 Column: 4 Error Message: Custom build rules file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\VCProjectDefaults\NvCudaRuntimeApi.rules' was not found or failed to load. The file 'C:\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA GPU Computing SDK 4.1\C\src\vectorAdd\vectorAdd_vs2008.vcproj' has failed to load.

Can anybody please tell what m i missing and where can I get this rules file as I am not able to find it in SDK.

Thanks,Any suggestion will be very helpful.

Have you installed the CUDA Toolkit? The "SDK" is basically a set of examples, you will need the Toolkit as well since it includes the compiler itself.

When you install the CUDA Toolkit (available here) it will install the NvCudaRuntimeApi.rules into the Visual Studio directory. If for any reason it cannot find Visual Studio (you install VS after CUDA, for instance), you can find the rules file in \extras\visual_studio_integration\rules.

Once you've installed the Toolkit and got the SDK samples working, check out this post for how to get started with your own project (or this post for VS2010).
