I got this from the DirectX help file. Run C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DXDIAG.EXE for
the Directx diagnostics. This is the closest i've found to un-installing
DirectX.
Restoring Drivers
On some configurations, DirectX� Diagnostic Tool allows you to restore older
audio and video drivers. This may be the best way of solving problems with
incompatible drivers.
If a Restore button appears on the More Help page, click this button to run
the DirectX Setup program.
DirectX Setup has two buttons labeled Restore Audio Drivers and Restore
Display Drivers. Clicking either of these buttons restores drivers that were
replaced when DirectX was installed on your system. If a button is disabled,
you do not have older drivers to switch back to. In that case, contact the
hardware manufacturer for the newest drivers.
DirectX Setup also provides a checkbox to disable Direct3D hardware
acceleration, which is something you can already do from within DxDiag. (See
Overriding Default Behavior.)
Good luck

Unfortunately it didn't. Maybe this will help a little more.
It's a 2000 Professional system running directx 8.1
Someone found the beta version of this and installed it on his system.
It now says that it has expired, and please download the update at
Microsoft.
The update is only directx 8a
Its not a train smash. Just a little irritating because of the pop ups.
Thanks again

Hi there
I was wondering if it is possible to uninstall Direct X.
If it is, how would it be done.
