Marztabator Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=enThe file name seems to mention 'update', and it references the SDK a tad. The redistributable link at http://mirrors.edskes.com appears to be broken now, so this could be the new release. It just seems so confusing though, what if it's something for the SDK only?
devil270975 Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Biggest update i have seen, 35mb, blimey, from what i can gather this is the whole package, but as you said it is not very clear, hopefully one of the admins will be able to clear this up for us.

Aaron Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Yup, this is what people download when they want to install the DirectX end-user runtimes to more than one different Windows OS.By the way, DaveXP has uploaded the OPK versions of DirectX 9.0b, along with WMP9 and MovieMaker2. These are smaller, doesn't require a switch, and can be installed from svcpack.inf:DX9NTopk.acemm2.aceSo grab em while you can (thanks Dave!)edit: WMP9 link seems to be down. Extract with WinRAR or WinACE.
DaveXP Posted October 17, 2003 Posted October 17, 2003 Sorry about the down the link i was clean up my web space a bitHere it is WMP9

GreenMachine Posted October 18, 2003 Posted October 18, 2003 Actually, credit goes out to XtremeMaC for the link I posted, who seems to have a friendly fast server with lots of space.
rstryker Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 OK problem...I tried intalling WMP9 without a switch and it poped up and asked me to accept install.I tried again useing the /Q switch and it fixed that but I got a popup saying system restore was disabled did I realy want to install.Any help would be appreciated
illc0mm Posted October 25, 2003 Posted October 25, 2003 Did you get this resolved yet? I'm in the processess of building my CD and wanted to use this in SVCPACK.INF instead of command lines.-illc0mm
