There is no such thing as an uninstallable version of DX.
They are what Microsoft calls core components of your OS. What one
can do is if you are running Windows XP or Windows ME is use the
restore function to return to an earlier time before you installed
the newer version of DX. Besides DX 9.0b is a patch that addresses
problems that were in DX9.0 and DX9.0a.
Hope it helps

In other words, you need to create a 'restore point' before starting the install
procedure?

If it's one of those things where it installs itself straight after downloading
it (ie while you're still on the phone!)
then you have to remember to set this restore point BEFORE you even commence the
download.

Hi all,

Did any of you who got as far as starting the install of this notice
the warning that it can't be uninstalled?


Does anyone know if it's a 'beta' version of some kind? If so, the
webpage doesn't say so.

If it's not uninstallable, what happens if the PC is a disaster area
after the upgrade? (Like mine was...)
