In checking with the version of DirectX 9.0C that comes with this package, file sizes are different.

So is this update good for users?

Such files as ddraw.dll and ddrawex.dll have different file sizes from the normal DirectX 9.0c which comes with SP1 + SP2.

No one has any comments?

these updates are not to directx, but rather to the directx sdk

Then shouldn't the DirectX 9.0c redestribution based files be the same?

SDK = Special Developers Kit

Not The actual END USER runtime :)

I understand that. lol.

But it COMES with the end-user runtime, which has all the normal DirectX 9.0c files, but they are different sizes, etc. Which makes me believe it has been updated?

Downloading, ill tell you if my DirectX number changes.

Currently at (See Pic) let me go install it and ill report back.

Okay, thanks.

Could you also post a screeny cap of DXDIAG -> DirectX Files when you come back, so I can compare with mine.

I didnt update anything DirectX Version wise.

Its just a Update with Updated DirectX for Managed Code for the SDK. The Runtime is the same version.

The installer installed nothing since it had nothing to update since I dont have the SDK installed.

the file sizes are different because they come in two flavors for programmers--debug and retail

that's probalby why your files sizes are different...that's why mine were
