Having done just about everything I could think of to enable directx in 2k3 SP2 I have now found some information that says it is disabled when SP2 installs.....and there is no option in the windows interface to re-enable it.
Has anyone found a way around this? Registry hack, file copy, etc?
Just FYI: I have already set hardware acceleration to full in troubleshooting, have reinstalled (multiple times) the DX redists (including aug 2008 now), I have removed drivers - rebooted in safe mode - run drivercleanerpro - reboot and reinstalled drivers and directx redist etc etc but still the option in DXDiag are all greyed out and cannot be enabled.
Have tried with a 7800GT and a 8600GT (has anyone got full DX acceleration in 2003 SP2 with an ATI card?)
Any hack/workaround (except install xp :p: ) much appreciated, seems there isn't a lot of info on this floating around :(
