Thanks Larry [img]smile.gif[/img] . Yes I know what you mean and it's true I do only usually go for a broadband hosted mod, that way it was probably compensating me.
Dagorian,
www.microsoft.com is the offical site for directx, make sure you want to install this though as there is no way (officially) to uninstall it after your done...thats it your stuck with directx9.
If it makes any differance it works fine for me, no probs at all and does give a slight performance increase. The one thing thats changed is the mper thing, this time they seemed to have tailored this to cater for the fast growing mass multiplaying fans and I like to think that for me, it helps alot.
