I am also a beginner. Actually I just got the kinect yesterday and encountered the same problem as you. The sdk I installed is v1.8. Here is how I checked everything and solved it:

  1. Look into the device manager to check if the drivers are all setup;
  2. Check if you have the latest DirectX installed, Here's the way;
  3. Check if the .Net 4.0 or above has been installed;
  4. Make sure that your installation is clean, which means that the kinect should be unplugged during the installation. And make sure that you restart your computer after you have the sdk and developer toolkit installed.
