Q: I was just wondering if anyone has any feedback – all problems of installation, you did the frame to raise that kind of thing.
Re:Microsoft???Nah….they'd never do something like that….lol.
Re:Thanks for all the feedback. It looks like I should have no real problems upgrading to ver. 8.0. but I think I might wait another week though just to make sure. Microsoft seems to have a history of releasing "fixed" versions of DirectX shortly after a major release, e.g. 7.0 -> 7.0a, and I think they did the same with an earlier release – 5 or 6, I can't remember.

I read that review yesterday but unfortunately it does not compare DirectX 7.x with version 8.x, which is what I was really interested in.;)
Re:Also working fine in UT (4.32) and Strike Force (1.50). 4.36 UT Patch breaks Strike Force!

Re:It seems to work fine in both Tribes and Deus Ex.
Re:I got a score of 4642.
1024×860
32bit
GeForce DDR
Duron 950Mhz
I don't have scores to compare with, but when i published my score I was the highest amongst GeForce DDR/Duron benchmarks.
Re:There is a thread in General. Also, AnandTech linked yesterday to a DX8 review.
Link to the review here. (http://www.tweakersasylum.com/dx8final/dx8final.html)
Re:No issues that I can see.
Re:I need to run a 3dmark test. I have directX 8 installed and the new NVIDIA reference drivers so I should see higher scores.
Re:hairways,
