Installed on Win2k Pro SP3 with ATI beta DX9 drivers (6.13.10.6228) and a RAD8500 and getting significant improvements across the board. Guess they must have cleaned up DX7 & 8 support as well.

Now where are those new ATI DX9 drivers ????

Does anyone know where I can download the complete version of this instead of the web-update? I would like to install this on a computer which doesn't have a fast modem.

Can we go ahead and install DX9 over RC2? Or do I need to use the RC2 uninstaller?

Yes I installed straight over RC2 w/o any problems.
BTW it would appear that at this time (08.21 GMT London UK)
that all files have been pulled and even if you use the previusly posted [dxwebsetup.exe - size 298,064 bytes] will pull the RC0 files down instead

The version I have installed according to DxDiag 5.03.0000.0900 is :
DirectX 9.0 (4.09.0000.0900) and had no warning about a March timeout when installing.
HTH
