What would be the purpose? DirectX is usually the newer the better, no? Or am I missing something?

Hi, i'm not the person who requested DirectX I do not see a reason for you to have it because you can ealy find older versions just by searchig in google.com

But to answer your question why would people need a older version of directx? it's because the newer the DirectX the more incompatible it becomes with older hardware. I downloaded DirectX 8.1 only to find that Direct3D would not work anymore because my video card was to old. The list can go on and on of problems you might have due to having older hardware.

DirectX9 has now been released

so a download of 8.1b and 8.1 would be appreciated

I don't know if it would work, so no (as far as I know).
