correct, no dx9 support, b or c even for some of the older games.. That is why you need the previous versions, dx6-7-8 redistributables as well.. I tried to get all of them and I have several versions of redistributables downloaded from MS when they had that "right in the front" look at me easy to find.. now everything is burried under the promotions for dx10 and vista and if you pick the wrong link, you have to start digging all over again.. It's criminal to make things that work unavailable to force unwanted and un-necesarry upgrades just so they can get money, kinda like if you purposely sabatoged an opperating system to force someone to upgrade, or purposely disabled someones internet in order for the guy down the street that doesn't download as many game demos to have "faster throughput"..


The link in the post is to the web download runtime; here is the link to the redistributable
