  • directdraw beta expired :(

    Anyone got a link to a new directx version for 98se, the 682 version I'm running is coming up with "Directdraw beta has expired, please update"
    Either that or a good directx uninstaller

      or you could just have used the forum search funktion!
      According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless...

        Or you could go here and sign up to be a DirectX 9 beta tester.



        BTW Same thing happen to me. Just a word of advice, don't try reinstalling that same version again. I ended up having to reinstall WindowsME on my machine which took me back to version 7.1 of DirectX. Fortunately reinstalling ME back unto itself doesn't wipe out your settings and programs. Then I reinstall the offical 8.0a release.

                Just about 10 minutes after reading Jim's posts about this every month, my DX copy starts screaming murder as well
                I just updated with the RC2 710 version and hope MS comes with it's own version soon, so I can say goodbye to this warez version of Directx
