------- Additional Comments From xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2006-08-11 16:47 ------- AFAIK the installer of the demo checks for d3dx9_26.dll. Copy that dll into system32, and see if the behaviour changes (that is, if the DirectX install is skipped this way). If so, this bug should still be fixed (installer fails)
