Directx 5.0, 6.0, 7.0 For Windows Nt

[tekt5]

hey guys

I have an old laptop from my dads work w/ Windows NT
I'd like to see if I can get the demo for fruity loops working on it
It installed fine but when I run it, it complains that it needs DirectX 5.0 or higher.
Does anyone know where I can download the latest Windows NT version of directX?
microsoft.com only has verion 9 which isn't WinNT compatible ....

anyone? :unsure:

Format it and install win98se or win2k would be your best bet. They have much better support for directx than winNT.

Win 98, is actually a pretty cool operating system. It got a lot of stick but onceyou have it running well its really not that bad at all (better than NT in my limited experience)

Format it and install win98se or win2k

The thing is that I can't do that because it's still my dad's work's computer
so they won't let me instal anything that can't eisily be uninstalled (such as an OS)

there has to be some version of dx for windows nt..your best bet is to ask for help in a place that has more to do with windows and pc os's

There is no directx for windows NT. I remember when I first installed windows 2000 that did not have directx either, Microsoft released a directx for it a few months later.
