DirectX 8.0
« on: February 05, 2001, 12:31:00 PM »
I down loaded DirectX 8.0 and now I'm getting an error message opon exiting AH. It say this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. It does this on or off line. I also got that message when trying to log onto a site called Launch.com. Any ideas?

Or find DirectX 8A.
I'm using it right now with Win2k and it works just fine in my comp (PIII 700@933 256mb Gf2MX)

I guess what I had was 8a because it is still doing the same thing. Thx for trying. <S>. Anyone have a copy of DX 7a I can put back on here? The 8a is screwing with other things on the internet also.

 The work around for this is to disable RW auto start in setup before exiting the game.
