hello

I had the version 9.0c of directx,
then I wanted to install the game NeedForSpeed:Carbon, it gave me an error message that I wouldn't have directx installed. So I found out that dx needs to be reinstalled. I ran a uninstaller, and the game worked.

But now I cannot install the newest version anymore, better said it did install, but its still recognized as 8.1 in dxdiag.

Can someone help me with this problem?
