Hi,
Thanks. Actually, I did manage to get some help from the Inno Setup guys
and it now detects the .NET Framework version and downloads the setup
file from my server if needed. Still working on the DirectX angle, but I
am getting the installer upgraded to do what I need it to do.

-Thomas,
See the programme edsharp from www.empowermentzone.com/edsetup.exe. This
programme uses a free installer, is open source and does chec for updates.
Is this the kind of functionality you are looking for?

Hi Tom,
As an opinion, I would pick choice 3. Most computer gameCD usually come with
the proper direct X required to run it.
If 3 isn't possible then I would go for choice number 2, for the sake of
those who do not have the faster speeds.

hi.
Or you could have the installer check to see if the required components are
installed, if not, download them and install them before finishing

Hi Charles,
That, or simply include the manage components with the game. Adding just

Iether 1 and 2. I actually would love option 1. Direct x is sort of a big
file. Not huge by any means but no slouch. I'm wondering if the live
installer would just update files, but we wouldn't have to download such a

automatic. Most people seem to have broadband.
