Installation Procedure
If you're installing from the web, the following dialog will be displayed, and only missing components will be downloaded. |

| • | You will be prompted if you need to upgrade your machine to DirectX 9.0c (October 2006 edition) or the .Net Framework 2.0. DirectX 9 is a backwards compatible upgrade, and will not affect any of your existing DirectX applications. You can also remove the .Net Framework at any time from the Add/Remove Programs section in the Control Panel. |
