| | Installing an earlier DirectX I have Vista Ultimate with DirectX 10, but I have such a problem that I need to install DirectX 9.0c to run some apps. How do I install an earlier DirectX? I downloaded its setup and installed, but there still remained version 10. |

As far as I know DXDIAG will show the latest version but you can have multiple older versions also installed for backward compatibility. -- Annie___ (VM BB L)________________________________ http://find-out-more.brion.me.uk - http://email-me.brion.me.uk |

If you're missing some of components (for example, the managed runtime) you can update them from here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en Alun Harford |
