Default Dx9 redist for ME

.... 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....

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.

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.

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

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
