one more note,might be helpful

FIFA Info tool told me there is DX 6.0 not 9.0 as needed

same with the game (Alien Sky) said it need DX installed

I am in a mess... DX9.0C in 2K3SP1 is the Latest of all packaged versions for OS,yet can't play Fifa or new games

yes and also tuned on hardware acceleration to max as usual with my 2k3 config

but SP1 is the only change here....

Is there a way to play such games after installing 2K3 SP1???

it happen to me before on Rise Of Nation the only thing is you can do is uninstalled the DX9.0c of win2k3 and install the DX9.0c for XP and it will work perfectly.

WS2k3-SP1 has an old version of DirectX 9.0c.

You probably need the october refresh of 9c.

The SP1 doesn't have anything to do with this, by itself.

This re-release is required for many new games, like NFS-mostwanted, FIFA-2006, F.E.A.R, etc.
