Hi, PS
I'm working on a new setup for DirectX using the Aug 2007 eddition, and hope to have it posted soon. I'll let the list know when the new and improved setup is up. The Aug eddition installer I am going to custom make won't have this goofie issue where it extracts the files only, and forces you to find the dxsetup.exe file manually to install. It will just do it. I'm also adding in the multilanguage eddition so all should be cool here very soon. Thomas Ward wrote: > Hi Christopher, > Oh, I see your problem now.
