I can't find DX8.1 beta too
Heh, well what do you expect? It's beta software. It's still in its testing stages. I mean, if you install a pre-release test version of anything then you have to expect some problems with it. You install it at your own risk.Originally posted by bahamut_2006
the cursed 8.1 beta..DO NOT download it..why? because for one thing it is no better then 8.0a and is very unstable (it being a beta)
also im suprised no one had this problem yet..i cannot run any d3d game (all the pc games i own run on d3d just my damn luck)when i load the game it says "beta directdraw expired..please update" so i went to the ms website..got 8.0a..still happened so i manually deleted directx from the hd and registry..and it STILL happened..also someone may know howto fix it cause i know quite a few people have it..they most likely have also ran into this problem..if they didnt their really lucky..anyway any reply will be VERY MUCH appreciated..oh yeah forgot to add this but zephon the link you posted leads to a "file not found" page
