can't you revert to the saved point before you installed it with 'system restore'

There is a DX Buster that works great.

Used it myself to recover from DX9.

Did a search & found it for you.

Download it here

Be careful when messing with DirectX. I tried removing the most current version a couple years ago. Used a third party util (unfortunetly I forget which one) anyway it messed up my system pretty good, took a few days to get it running again.

didn't work.. won't get rid of dx9

says something about not being able to back up the registry (repeatedly) and never gets rid of it..
