Call for DirectX 8 implication

So I'm trying to run a specialized program that my work used to have on PC's.
Company was bought out and everyone was given a Mac. Some people kept there
PC's for the program. But those PC's are desktops and not laptops like the
Mac's are. I can install the program with no problems. When I run the program
it says that Vista machines run DirectX 10 and can not install DirectX 8. The
program continues to run. When I get a certain point to load data, it uses
DirectX for visualizations, no way around it. It then completely crashes.

Nothing was fixed, you only used a workaround.
Setting the component to "unknown" since "dx8vb" is missing.

Basically, our current version of dx8vb is only stubs (I'm working on it). So
you need the native version installed for it to work.

That special program, it's not available as download for testing by any chance?

Yes, I did find a work around. But then got animation error. Work around that
was changing to gdi, but now I get error that DirectX3D can not start.

If you would like a copy of that special program, I can provide a copy so as
long it doesn't go public.

So even with native dx8vb it doesn't work? Do you get a different error?

I don't want to make it public, I only want to test it. Maybe I can get dx8vb
good enough some day so it'll work with built in dx8vb.
