INSTALL DIRECTX5 when installing pod?

Message par Richard »

Greetings, I notice that there is a DIRECTX folder on the pod cd. This did not install when I installed pod because I already have version 8.1 on my computer. I have a relatively new machine (2002) running WIN XP. Should I go and install this version of DIRECTX from the pod cd over my new version? I notice it has a joy.cpl file here. Maybe that is why I can not get the joystick working. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the pod cd file I refer to:

It isn't necessary to install DirectX 5 over version 8.1. Besides of the fact that it isn't working, the newer DirectX versions have all functions of the older ones. Your problem with your joystick has another reason.
