Title: DirectX Happy Uninstall 3.88
Post by: Chief95 on October 23, 2006, 07:53:06 AM
Last week I posted about having a DirectX problem. What I have installed is DirectX 9.0a and I have been trying to install 9.0c. I have been unable to install the new version because I have a corruput file in 9.0a  file ( dpnsvr.exe).
One of the responses I recieved  suggested that I delete DirectX using "DirectX Happy Uninstall 3.88." My question is how many have used this product and is it really safe for a novice like me to use it?

Thanks All

Alright,I tried it ;D and if you don't have the registered version...LOL
It is no good. :-?

You will also find IEradicator online at major geeks but,It is not for Windows 2000 or XP.

Sadly the true fix appears to be Format and reinstall.but backup,backup,backup. :-? ;D ;D ;D

Don't you mean DirectX Eradicator (http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=509)? ;)
(btw I've used it before on both Win2000 and WinXP machines without problems)
