        DirectX 6.1 is required for the PIII to operate correctly.

            Don't waste your time with DirectX 6.1. There is no =

                Need to install DirectX 6.0 or 6.1.
                I am leaning to try 6.0 first.  If games (half-life, =
Sin, etc) don't run
                right, I figure I can go to 6.1.  Heard its tougher =
going from 6.1 back
                to 6.0
                If things are fine, stay with 6.0.
                Looking for positive suggestions or others' experiences.
                Currently using DirectX 5.0 and everything runs fine.  I =
am using Win95b
                (2.1)
               =20
                Before installing 6.0, I plan to upgrade the velocity =
drivers (1.52?)
                and the voodoo2 drivers to diamond's 207.
                Will use reference drivers as a last resort.
               =20
                System:
                P-II266, DMI motherboard (P2XLX),128ram, velocity 4400 =
agp (1.44
                drivers), voodoo2 (diamond 203 drivers), AWE64, =
mitsubishi 87txm
                monitor.
               =20
                Current games run great, quake2, unreal, Need4Speed3, no =
problems.
                Hope it stays that way with 6.0 or 6.1!
                Thanks
