It most likely would take a Registry hack to make it think you have DX 6 installed. Similar to earlier versions of 3DMark2000 that wouldn't run on DX 8 machines.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\DirectX and it's under "Version", but I don't remember a dx6 code off-hand. (Actually I don't ever think I knew one or needed to before...
 )

I have NO IDEA if this works, but it's something I found doing a search.
It's a DirectX Version Control. The app claims to let you establish WHICH DirectX version you wish for a particular program to use. Might be worth checking out. DirectX Version Control Info
