Title: Where can I find DirectX 7.0a?
Post by: deSelys on June 11, 2001, 02:03:00 PM

Hi gents,

I recently upgraded my computer with a new motherboard/processor, but the DirectX version on the MB installation CD is 'only' 7.0 .
On the MS site, I can only find the 8.0a version which isn't perfect from what I've read on this BB.
Lots of you guys recommend to stick to the 7.0a . Can somebody tell me where I can get this version (website, FTP server or even maybe CD of a low-priced game)?
Thanks a lot.

If I were you I would try to find DX 6.0, it's the last version with decent joystick support.

All other versions make my stick spike like hell.
