3DMark 99 MAX Pro (MadOnion or FutureMark)

Has anyone managed to get 3DMark 99 working under WinXP??? I've tried several things including running it in compatibility mode. . . After installation, attempting to run the software results in an error complaing that DirectX 6.

Has anyone managed to get 3DMark 99 working under WinXP???

I've tried several things including running it in compatibility mode...

After installation, attempting to run the software results in an error complaing that DirectX 6.1 is required (even though I have DirectX 8.1 installed!!!).

Any ideas?

Cheers.

Yup there seems to be no way to get them running at the moment, and i doubt they will ever run.

Ive tried all i can think of really, and if you check the madonion boards they cant get it working either

Bugger, looks like i might have to go and install Win98SE/ME as a dual boot just to get it running.

I didn't really want to have to do that. :-( *shrugs*

cheers.

Madonion already declared non-compliance for 3Dmark99 and 2000 with XP for a ver long time.

Why would you want to run 3DMark '99 that bad?!
