Picklecade

I am using KDM-2016021900 with SpiceTools (running through spice.exe and set up with the Dance Evolution profile in spicecfg) and I am getting the grey screen as if I didn't install the Jun 10 DXSDK and Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package. I have installed both of those (uninstalling existing 2010 Visual C++ first) onto the same drive that the game is located in, but I still get the grey screen. I do not currently have the Kinect set up, do I need to do that for it to display? I didn't want to order a Kinect until I could at least see if I could get the game to start first.
