Does anyone know how i can check to see if I have DirectX8.1 on my computer?

I am currently using Windows XP pro.

Thanks.

 
Double-Click dxdiag.exe in C:\Windows\System32

The version number is on the last line.
 
Thanks for your help....

I have found the prorame you mention, but how do I know if I have direct X 8.1?

What do I need to look for - I can't find directX8.1 anywhere??? Is there somewhere in this programme inparticular where I should look?

Thanks
 
By the way, you can also go START -> RUN -> dxdiag

Anyway, it'll tell you the version on the first page under System Information. There'll be a field saying 'DirectX Version'.

Regards
 
Nice one - it's there right in front of me, I have got 8.1 - Thanks for your help!!
 
That 's as I said,
The version number is on the last line.
