Affect on N3 and GPL (who cares about anything else???...just kidding).
Now that the official Microsoft (retail) release has been made....this is not an
install that's easily "undone!"
Thanks in advance.....

I guess the question is do you see any differences?

Thanks a million for your timely post. I installed DX 7.0 and immediately
had all kinds of trouble with Win recognizing my wheel. Couldn't get any
sim using DirectX joystick driver to work.
I had tried just re-installing DX 6.1, but that didn't work. Soon as I ran
the removal program your URL points to, and then re-installed DX 6.1 all is
well again.
Thanks again, Bob

Just Some Fyi; {probably only important to me though...eh?}
I wasn't as fortunate as you Bob & Craig to get the utility before I
installed DX7.0 & found out that it would do a major' video mess
with many of my sims & games! 'i.e. Sbk, MotoRacer2, NFS3 &
more! Even MS's Midtown Madness had the same problem! Gpl
& Quake2 ran great though!! Weird??
All was well with DX6.1 but I assumed if it is from "MS" it had to
be ok...Wrong!! What a mess I went through; Checking all video
options, in & out of control panel to change this & that etc!
I finally used my tape-back-up.. While in Windows 98 I deleted
everything in Windows98, System, System32 and Systembak. I
then restored it back to these directories! I am really glad I have
a tape-back-up! But I still have no idea why Windows 98 didnt
crash when I deleted all these directories & kept running? Odd?
Anyway I have DXback utility now!! Next time {if there will be
a next time!} I'll use it!! Thanx Craig for posting the url!!
Cheers Thom_j.
