Direct X - Version 7??

This is a discussion about Direct X - Version 7?? in the Windows Software category; Didn't DX7 ship with Win2k?? When I run the DXInfo tool. . . its telling me all versions are 5. OK I am officially confused. Can installing older games that ship with previous versions of DX have overwritten the 7??.

You're not a moron You just don't fully understand Windows 2000 yet When I first got RC1 I did something similar These guys helped me a lot! It's a plus I am learning and helping at the sametime. So contribute to the cause.
