hi ,
When i try to use 3dmark 2001se on my computer it says that directx 8.1 should be installed.by
the way i have direct x 9.0.so i installed directx 8.1, but still the problem persists.
There is a patch on the futuremark website that fixes that problem. Depending on what version you have installed, go to the website and look for the patch. It will fix it if that is the problem.
