Direct X

[Zena]

I was trying to play the free trial of "Virtual Villiagers" and I don't think that I have the version of directx that I might need to play.  When It states up, the screen will go black and try to click to a different setting and then a message box comes up.  I think that is the problem.  Does anyone know where I can download a free version of Diecetx without having to validate my version of windows?

I can't use that site because I can't validate my copy of windows.  Is there any others? :OO

Thank You, but what do I do now! It is asking  me to "Please type the location where you want to place the extracted file"          What does that mean!!   :OO

Just type in - c:\  ( without the - )

Then navagate to your C drive and the file will be there.
