Directx in 98se

[Mstrd 0]

In Win 2k there is a way to select an app. to run a different version of DirectX. Is there a way to do the same in 98se? I have a few games that do not like DirectX8.1 and I want to force them to use the older versions they were designed for.

try just installing directx 8.0a, very few games (currently) use dx 8.1 anyway

Or actually microsoft just released the beta dx 9.0 try that

there is a program ...that you can get from www.guru3d.com...that allows your to change your direct x version....it makes a copy of your current one...then you upgrade...make copy...and then it nukes the direct x and you can go back to the prior version..

Do not use DX9.0 BETA. It slows down the computer and your games.
