Does anyone know where I can download or get Direct X 8 or later till Windows NT pro? I just got "Max Payne" (PC game) and when I started it, the damn thing said I needed direct X - but I cant find it anywhere!!! Is it in one of the service packs? I also tried downloading the 2000 version, but I just got an error message saying: "This program is not designed for use on Win NT"

HELP!!!!

NT doesn't support the use of DirectX past version 3, which is included in SP4.

Upgrade the OS. Use Win9x/ME/2000. Those all support it.
