hi,

i got a doubt about the directx runtime (directx_jun2007_redist.exe)

if you make an installation (unattended or a normal one) it doesnt change the version (dxdiag)

i mean, dxdiag shows me:

Version DirectX: DirectX 9c (4.09.0000.0904)

Before installind the directx_jun2007_redist.exe, and there was only the os winxp without nothing installed (just formatted )

than i ve installed the directx_jun2007_redist.exe and i ve reboot, i opened dxdiag and i saw thet directx version was the same:

Version DirectX: DirectX 9c (4.09.0000.0904)

Now, or the dxdiag is a bad buggy tool, or the directx is not installed...

Anyone knows how that s happens?

thanks so much

(if it doesnt update the directx from windows installe, how can update it from my uacd?...)

Now, or the dxdiag is a bad buggy tool, or the directx is not installed...

It's neither. The DirectX 9.0c core has not been updated since its initial release apart from one security update (KB904706). The runtimes that are released every other month only contain additional binaries and test files, mostly used for games, which are not part of the core application. So, because Windows XP SP2 comes stock with DX9c, the version notation in the diagnostic tool doesn't change after installing a newer runtime.
