Hi
  I was hoping someone here could give me some advise about a game i recently bought called superpower by Dreamcatcher. I unfortunetly run windows me and every time i try to install the game it shows an error saying it can't find direct X 8.1. I must have tried to download direct x 8.1 a dozen times and still no luck. Any suggestions?

Hiya 2274 - welcome to the zoo!  :wave:

I'm not a huge games player myself, so your question would probably be best answered by somone who knows what they're talking about!

One thing does occur to me though - the  latest version of DirectX is 9a.  Would you not be better using that instead?  (https://www.pc-pals.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hogarth-hq.com%2Fsmileys%2Fscratchit.gif&hash=f0e37750b7a4a5f37e8dd18e25e8ded26e7196cb)
