Hi,

Is there any way to remove DirectX 9.0a and put back DirectX 8.1 (without reinstalling Windows)

Thanks,

Alex

Not as far as know - M$ always says directx can't be uninstalled - though I've seen various software that claims it can do this (use Google) - though I've never tried one (as it sounds too much like trouble to me).

Hi, everybody. I finally found tool on the web that uninstalled DirectX 9.0a for me. I used beta version of "DirectX Eradicator 1.09". It worked for me! (I have win2k prof. sp3). So if anybody needs to get rid off "DirectX 9", you may try this tool. (you will need "win2k CD"). DirectX Eradicator 1.09 can be downloaded from
