Oxygene Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 ::::Whistler:::: How do you know so much? DO you work for microsoft? I think you just THINK you know it all. Yes I am involved with Microsoft. ...and all I am saying is that DirectX9 has not been announced as Final, yet! ...and it just so happens that DirectX9 RC2 has the same build number as the build you believe to be *Final*. /end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OPaul Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 So why does the final have the same build number as RC2 or whatever now? I thought there where bugs in the RC, did they not fix them and just release it or did they not update the build number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unimatrixzer0 Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 For anyone that has an AIW Radeon 8500DV, guess it applies if you have any other AIW Radeon cards as well,... anyways go to Start -> Programs -> ATI MultiMedia Center -> Configure -> PC Check,... and run the test. Tells me Directx isnt installed correctly. Wondering if anyone else gets that message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helmers Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 Unless I don't know what I'm talking about, the Direct3D is not the only part of DirectX. The audio/2d/input drivers have probably been improved as well, and even if it won't improve the speed, it includes the latest version of many core components, which is a good thing. :p But what you are asking is if DX9 will make the games use it. It will, but it won't use all the cool features. So there is no reason NOT to upgrade, but it probably will be little difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
