The SharpDX reference indicates that it is version 2.6.3.0. I am afraid I am pretty clueless at all this .NET stuff and may be looking at exactly the wrong thing. Any advice would be helpful.

This provided the clue - with a little judicious Googling, the solution is to install the legacy DirectX support from
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35 (web installer - there is also a full redistributable download at
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109, but I chose not to use that). I am not sure whether this has been removed from Win 8.1 64 bit or if it was just broken.
Now all versions work - the original .NET deployment, the stand-alone executable, and my source-build. Possibly the redistributable could be included with the deployment?
Now I have it working it is brilliant - my son is now even more excited waiting for the hardware to arrive! Thanks.
It would be great if the debugger worked at the source-level with the .elf file debug information, but that would be a much bigger project!

Thanks for looking into that Clifford. And yeah, I'm surprised it wasn't already installed on your machine...I ran Simbuino from an almost-fresh Win8.1 64 bit install on a Surface Pro 2 and never encountered that problem. I might need to look at using a different installer.

That was one of my original goals with Simbuino. As always it's a matter of finding time between work, family and my other Gamebuino commitments.

Dear myndale,
When i try to start up the setup.exe file or the simbuino.application file, it says that i cant start the application simbuino from this location because it has already been started in a different location(translated from Dutch).

Hi! Sorry to hear about the problems you're having with the installer, I haven't encountered this one before. This error usually occurs when you're trying to install a newer version over an older version (even though technically it should work). If you do have an have an older version installed then try un-installing it first, if that's not the case then feel to msg me and I'll send you a zip file of the standalone files that you can try running directly.

my computer does not let me erase any of the simbuino files. It says that i need to check the location of the file, and try again.

When I launch simbuino.exe included in the standalon build, on Windows 7...
I get... nohing.
I get no error, no message, nothing.
Is there a log somewhere?
Thx

Not as such, but you can often get revealing information by looking at the Windows event viewer. Once running select Windows Logs -> Application and look for errors in the listbox to the right.
