DirectX 7.0 to 6.1

Sometime ago I saw a post here referencing a website with instructions on removing DirectX 7.0 and reinstalling 6.1. Does anyone have any information they could pass on? Thanks in advance, Bob Geddes

'Twas I that gave it, and here it is again... There's a DX 7 uninstaller at this URL.. Basically, what it does is label your latest version as, say, DX1, then when you reinstall DX6.1 it'll go right over the top of it. http://www.heise.de/ct/ftp/99/03/204/english.shtml Colin (Bom)

You're a life saver, Colin. Thank you very much. I have bookmarked it this time :-) Bob G

I agree Bob.. Great info Colin! I had to do it the hard way though! I ripped out all directories; win98, win98\system, win98\system32, win98\systembk and win98\command then restored them with my tape backup! I thought Win98 would crash but I re-booted and it didn't luckily! Wish I knew of this site before but I'll book mark it now also!......Cheers Thom_j. > You're a life saver, Colin.
