I just received a program that needs Direct-X 7a. I have heard there have been problems with GPL and Direct-X 7. Did Direct-X 7a fix it all or is there still a problem? Thanks Iain [email hidden]
Why not install direct-x 8 ? Its running fine on my machine. "Iain Muir" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Well considering we are up to dx8 now, I think any problems with an older version would be ironed out. I beleive the dx7a fixes were more in line with force feedback controllers. If gpl had a problem, it was more in line with getting the ff controllers working. I don't think..(or rather remember) that gpl itself had a problem with dx7. dave henrie "Iain Muir" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I've had absolutely ZERO problems with GPL and either DX7 or DX7a, Iain. -- Regards, Bruce Kennewell, Canberra, Australia. --------------------------- Iain Muir <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I just received a program that needs Direct-X 7a.

No problems here with DX7.a or DX8.
