Dear monz,

Thank you for your support. I followed your advice and ran dxdiag. My
DirectX is the same as your version. However, it seems that d3d8.dll
and d3d9.dll are not up to date. I tried a complete reinstallation of
a new download to no avail. These files simply won't update. There are
exclamation marks next to them with a warning saying that they are old
versions. Can you send me your version of these files and tell me
exactly where to copy them?

Cordially,
Oz.
