I have a problem with directx, so Is theree any way to unistall directx and all the keys it created in the registry. AAnd then reinstall it to solve the problem that i have

Ohh by the way i have directx 8.1.

Not sure 'bout the reg keys,but yes,you CAN uninstall DirectX; http://www.directxbuster.de/index_e.html Let me/us know

By the way,what problem(s) are you having?

Guess I should ask/mention,although you might have already tried,but what does your DirectX diagnostic tool say? Start/Run/dxdiag

Got a shock last night, looking through my folders in programes and ran across DIRECTX and opened it to see what it was having never heard of it before, and was impressed? Anyway I put a shortcut to it on my desktop and I'm wondering now , after reading this post how it rates? How did it get there? Is it part of ME ?? Cheers , Jim

http://webopedia.com/ DirectX A set of APIs,(Abbreviation of application program interface, a set of routines, protocols, and tools for building software applications. A good API makes it easier to develop a program by providing all the building blocks. A programmer puts the blocks together.),developed by Microsoft that enables programmers to write programs that access hardware features of a computer without knowing exactly what hardware will be installed on the machine where the program eventually runs. DirectX achieves this by creating an intermediate layer that translates generic hardware commands into specific commands for particular pieces of hardware. In particular, DirectX lets multimedia applications take advantage of hardware acceleration features supported by graphics accelerators. ____________________________________ http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/ default.asp Get the FAQs Get answers to common questions on what DirectX is, what it does, and what you need to do to make the most of it.
