In DirectX, there is more than just video drivers. There is audio among others and these DirectPlay drivers. M$ uses them in FL to enable those that MP to talk through LAN and the internet to other 'puters using the same DirectPlay drivers. So yes, it has nothing to do with video but DirectPlay is part of DirectX. It is possible that older versions of DirectPlay in older versions of DirectX may not work 100% with FL MP.

hehe, I'm not aplying, just trying to help

And a big help you are Nickless!

The problem with Directx 9 and my machine is that directx 9 mucks up all of the games and you can't just uninstall Directx 9 so i have to rebuild it. i have no idea why it mucks up my games or how to fix it. it freezes most of the games but some seem perfectly unaffected. i have an nvidea tornado gforce 4 titanium 128mb graphics card and all the lastest drivers for it so thats not the problem. i've tryed contacting nvidea and different forums but no one can solve my problem. i have also tryed getting different copies from different places but still the same problem.

If any one has any suggestions how to fix it, it could solve both problems.
