Kelvin,

I am running J3D 1.2.1 Beta 1 Direct X with Win2K & Win98 and I still am
definitely getting this warning also.  I know that DirectX 8.0 is installed
properly because dxdiag.exe tells me so and the performance I am seeing is
better than DirectX 7.0.

The boards are ATI Mobility-P, OS is Win2K / Win98, this happens with both
the previous and the current version of the ATI Mobility-P driver.

I also looked in the J3D.DLL and found the warning string: "DirectX 7.0 is
requierd for this version of Java3D.".  If it's not supposed to be in J3D
1.2.1 Beta 1, why am I finding it?
