Hi,
I recently installed MediaPortal 1.0 on my Windows XP SP3 box and a have a directx version error on startup (see screenshot).
I have directx 10 installed on my system as a result of the installation of the Games for Windows thing ("fake" Windows XP version)... (see screenshot again...)
Reinstalling DirectX 9.0c doesn't help.
I have always thought directx is backward compatible. Is the version checking code too strict on startup? Is the string that holds the version not parsed correctly?
Attached are some screenshots that demonstrate the problem. I also provide the full log.
Thanks for helping!
