3Dmark2001SE with DX9

[goblinking]

For some reason, I can't run 3Dmark2001SE. It installs fine, but when I try to run it it tells me that it can't run because I don't have DirectX 8.1 installed. Even more annoyingly, it doesn't have a button for "try to run anyway". I can run 3Dmark2001 non-SE just fine.

I have DirectX 9.0 installed, with a Radeon 9800 Pro (6.14.0010.6343), an Athlon XP 2800+ (which is curiously called a Duron by both 3Dmark2001 and 3Dmark2003), and an A7N8X (2.78).

Any suggestions?
