I have an old HP4535 PC which came with the following
Windows 98SE
Intel i810 chipset (w integrated video)
Celeron 400
Maxtor 10GB EIDE HD
320 MB PC100 SDRAM
8x CD-ROM
floppy drive
I also added the following as aftermarket items ...
Diamond Monster MX300 Soundcard (vortex 2 chip)
USR 56K modem (controller based)
I have checked with both Intel and HP and they both give the green light for
updating DirectX from its current version (6) to version 9. However, since
I installed both the sound card and the modem as aftermarket items could
either cause a conflict with DX9?
What components does Direct X affect besides Audio/Video?
What's the worst the could happen if it isn't compatible?
Thanks in advance.
