Folks,
You have to hexedit the dxsetup.exe file and at offset 0x33e2 change 74 to EB:

I have included a jpeg of my hex.

Should then be able to install using:
CODE
ECHO.
ECHO Installing DirectX 9.0b
ECHO Please wait...
start /wait %systemdrive%\install\DirectX9b\dxsetup.exe /opk

or you can use /windowsupdate as the switch

I used the hex-edited dxsetup.exe downloaded from the Net. I saw the link on this forum. But it does not work.

Grab the dxsetup.exe file from the DirectX 8.1 redist in your own language.

i need to hex-edit it or not?only must i put dxsetup.exe (8.1 version) in the same folder of dx9b and overwrite the existing dxsetup.exe (9b version) and use the switch /opk?

or must i hex-edit it anyway?

and also... 8.1 or 8.1b?
Aaron
I heard it already supports the silent install switch, so no hex-editing necessary.

Try 8.1 first.
beppemito
can i use in cmdlines.txt:
CODE
[commands]
"start /wait dxsetup.exe /opk"

?
LordM
