Just seen this http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Secure-cleaning/DirectX-Eradicator.shtml Never used it myself, but says it can remove directx

Also why would you want to remove it, its only going to cause problems I'd think.

you can get rid of it, but why would you want to? unless you never intend using directx?

all my directx 9 games crash even with a fresh install of windows tried updating to the december edition but that only replaces some files
im wondering if my direct x is corrupt somehow on my install disk so wanted to rule this out before i start rma`ing my hardware

So DX8 games don't crash?

cyclopopcicle · 9 Feb 2006 at 08:02

no and neither do dx 7 games

cod2 has the option to use either dx7 or 9
dx7 will run all day
dx9 lasts about 10 mins maximum

run dxdiag and look at the 'directx files' tab. that will show if it's corrupted or not.

if it shows as ok, then you more than likely have a hardware problem.....
