Check it out here. This is not a beta by the way - at least to my knowledge anyway.

I've had it for 'bout a week myself. No problems. Works great.

Watch. All of you have had no problems. I'll download it and have nothing but problems.

If you have the latest drivers for your video card and motherboard, then you should have no problems. I had it since Christmas and had no problems and a slight improvement in 3dmarks.

Watch out for some of your multi player games. I read somewhere that it wont allow you to play some multi-player games. But so far i have not ran in to any problems with games.

I'm downloading it now.

I installed it yesterday and so far no problems.

ive had it for a while now and havent seen any differnce in my games or pc.
it also took longer to d/l than the 111mb half-life sdk off fileplanet

What version did you download? You probably downloaded the version for developers to include with their software which is bigger than the normal version.

i must've cause when i use dxdiag it says direct x version 8.1 not 9

 

[Spock]

no, the one i d/l was 32megs not 227megs

DirectX 9 is only 8 MB in size. Download it directly from Microsoft's site. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/default.asp

that must be an updated version because i d/l it just after it came out of beta testing into just dx9

You downloaded the wrong version.

You downloaded the DirectX 9.0 Redistributable version, which is for software developers to include with their products.

The DirectX 9.0 End-User Runtime (the one you should've downloaded) is only 8mb.

oh..aw crap

 

[KosmikFool]

Hehe...

 

[Spock]

ha i got dx9 installed from the DirectX 9.0 Redistributable version
