You can download here (http://www.snert.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/files/dx80eng.exe) but beware... this is an early beta. Not to be installed on critical machines... I'm downloading it right now... will report findings...
It's a 10 meg file.

Downloading right now. I'll give you a report on how it works. I'll do some backing up before I go through with this though. Let me know if you find anything bad before I install it (thank you flop).

OH, MY BAD. I didn't even look at the POST dates. I was confused. I wondered why everyone was so excited about some old direct x drivers.
