Hi Matt,
Set a system restore point before trying that. You might
have one setup already if you installed DX9.0b.
Use Win XP's System Restore to return your system to a previously stable date:

| Hi Jimmy S.
| yes, it was the second thing i did. after i tried
| finding an opengl update. i found one thing i haven't
| tried yet. it's going to involve changing some files
| around. i hope this works this is day three of trying to
| get this right. Anyway here's what i found:
|
| Go into the WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DLLCACHE directory and
| delete
| OPENGL32.DLL Go into the WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 directory and
| rename OPENGL32.DLL to OPENGL32.OLD Windows will pop up a
| dialog saying a protected system file has been modified
| and to insert your WinXP cdrom. Click Cancel and then
| Yes.
| Copy the file WINDOWS\APPPATCH\ACXTRNAL.DLL into your
| WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 directory and rename it OPENGL32.DLL
| Finally reboot your machine.
