Hello My friend is having a problem with directx 9c. She bought WOW and
installed it on her laptop, then installed ver 9c so it would play. However
some of the direct 3d stuff was not working. She paid for a program called
Happy uninstall which when registered allowed her to backup to her old
version of Directx on her win XP cd.
We then tried the directx 9 on the game cd again, you click the setup and in
about 2 seconds it pops up saying it is installed. However nothing gets
installed.. it still lists as version 8.
We then connected to the MS website, downloaded the web installer, and the
same thing happened.
We then connected to MS and downloaded a full version of 9c to the desktop
and ran the install from there.
The same thing happens no matter what, you run dxsetup, about 2 secs go by
and it says it is fully installed and ready to run.
Yet when you do dxdiag it clearly shows ver 8 installed, and WoW (World of
Warcraft) will not run with anything but 9c.
Does anyone have a fix for this problem?
