And what is this good for again? I was still cool with DX6 but got swept along by progress somewhere back there. TX-ZenBlack 6TX Squadron CO

Just to clarify : Alabama is NOT a small far off county. Mississippi could go either way.

S~ To the TX I installed it on my computer and it promptly killed it so make sure you set a restore point on your computer. But alas i did and ran into the it wouldnt even do that so to fix it i just went and bought a new one and set the old one aside till i can format the HD and promptly sell it. S~ TX and Merry Christmas

I've been using the DX9 beta for a while, and now the final release for a few days. I've had no issues whatsoever. I think this final version runs pretty good. Got a nice jump in fps over DX8.Been trying to install the 41.80 drivers from Creative, but they won't go. They're supposed to utilize some of the DX9 features.TX-Seeker"White 3"
