DirectX 8.1

I just got my first build up and running last night, with no problems at all (thx for the help everyone) until this hopefully minor one. I'm trying to install Warcraft III on it and I need directx 8.1. I tried installing from the WC3 cdrom, but it says "DirectX Installation Failed." Does this have something to do with my video card? I'm using an old Geforce 2 MX temporarily, running on Windows 98. Thanks.
