Bugger, looks like i might have to go and install Win98SE/ME as a dual boot just to get it running. I didn't really want to have to do that. :-( *shrugs* cheers. Akko.

Has anyone managed to get 3DMark 99 working under WinXP??? I've tried several things including running it in compatibility mode... After installation, attempting to run the software results in an error complaing that DirectX 6.1 is required (even though I have DirectX 8.1 installed!!!). Any ideas? Cheers. AKKO

Assuming that you have done the right thing and have not pirated the software in question here is my work around to your problem. Download the appropriate Service Release/Packs and any hotfixes for your version of Office and then create yourself a slipstream CD. There are heaps of step-by-step 'how to' guides for creating Office Slipstream CDs, have a search on google and you'll be sure to find something that will help you. cheers. AKKO

See this thread for a link to the Web Installer for DX9B3, expires early-mid January 2003 EDITED *LINK* Hope this helps. cheers. Akko DosFreak - Sorry had to remove it.
