Viper Racing: DirectX6 required?

Can anyone tell me if DirectX 6 is required to run Viper Racing? The demo runs fine on my PC with DirectX 5. The system specs on the box of Viper Racing do not include DirectX 6, but in the manual it is specified as necessary. I don't want to install DirectX 6 on my PC in case it affects the running of THE game (GPL). Does anyone have GPL running 100% on a DELL XPS R450 with a Monster 3D II using DirectX 6? -- Rob.

Can't remember whether it needs DX6, but DirectX's setup program will ask permission before it installs. So you can go ahead and install Viper and don't let DX6 install (if it tries). "Gunner"
