I'm trying to play an old Windows 98 game on Windows 7.
The game is asking me to install DirectX 6.
If I choose to install them will this affect my system? (In other words will this stop newer games from being playable, stop flash websites from working, interfere with newer programs, etc.?).
Question from user user2348797 at gaming.stackexchange.com.
Answer:
It should not affect your computer in any bad way, all DirectX versions work together with each other, older version would not overwrite a newer version, same as newer version wouldn't overwrite an older version.
