Hi Elwis,
I have bad news here. The last version of Direct3D you could use on NT4 was 2.0. If you want to use directraw (not the 3d portion) the highest version you can install is DirectDraw 3. You'll need to upgrade your operating system. I think there were some hacks to get some of DirectX 5 working on NT4, but that isn't exactly going to work well either. You need DX6 support which means that you'll want to have at least Windows 95. I'd recommend getting Windows 2000.
Cheers,

Normally you can't install just one .DLL as there are usually multiple support files that go with it. The fact you want to run it on NT4 is another issue too and will require some kind of hacking to even wedge it into place let alone getting it to work with the OS to begin with
Here is a google search on this issue. Perhaps somebody here does have some info on doing this kind of thing...
