I tested dx with dxdiag and got the following message when testing hardware-accelerated dx8 interfaces:

I think it may be the 29.42s, I have the same problem with the those 2 games not working. My DirectX Diag problems are different. Searching for solution.

I'm pretty sure I did try the fix, do you know where I can get from so I can try it again.
