Dx9 redist for ME
 

Anyone know what the latest applicable Dx9 update for ME is?

I can find a reference to ME in the April 2007 update, but it's not in the
list of supported OS's

Both my WinMe boxes show Dx9.0c (4.09.0000.0904). Latest dated file (I can
find) is 2004 and AFAIK they were both updated to the 'latest' version using
the WinMe AU early last year. The update history confirms that @ 27 March
2008

Thanks, Mart - The Dx9c is a bit of a pain - there's a new version every 2
months!
I'm going to have a go with a later version in a VM and see if it installs -
will report back.

Yes Noel, and perhaps I should have qualified my statement "they were both
updated to the 'latest' version" - following a clean install. So WU doesn't
'appear' to want to update it further. It will be interesting to see if you
can get it to accept anything later.

.... Uh Oh! - 'DirectX could not find a file required for installation' - any
bets on the file being NTDLL.DLL??
....ahah! - apparently it needs mscoree.dll (.NET)
..... more later....

Install .Net 1.1 - only to get

installation"....
at this point in the install of Dx9b, it was looking for 'bdasesetup.inf'
in a .cab file - so it looks as if they've removed the ME INF portion from
the installer
..... June 2005 installs OK (with .Net installed)
.....June 2006 actually states it supports ME! (will try tomorrow)
....Dec 2006 - downloading now for install tomorrow - no mention of ME in the

DX 9.0x for Win Me is available on WU and I've just downloaded and
installed it on a clean RTM Win Me running in a VM with no need for .NET.
By DX9b do you mean the earlier 9.0b?

Hmmm - June 2006 will install with OR without .Net installed (over Dx9b - it
requires a reboot either way)
The latest version available before a significant drop in size of the
installer looks to be Dec 2006 - so I'll try that one tomorrow

Th-that's all, folks! (for tonight anyhow)

yes, Mike
My VM here is 9.0b - v4.09.000.0902
I haven't got around to enabling ICS on the dongle yet, so my ME VM won't do
updates (not that it matters too much) - or I've forgotten how to set up
networking in the VM (which is all too possible!)
glad to see that MS is keeping the v4 updates going, though1 :)

Just for confirmation, that is the version on my machine and the last one to
be updated.
