DX8 installs dxtrans.dll and dxtmsft.dll files on Win95 and Win98 Gold with version numbers higher than those in IE 5.5. On these platforms only, problems with DX Transform functionality will be experienced. The order of installation is important to possible resolution of this issue. If IE 5.5 is installed first, followed by DX8, uninstallation/reinstallation of IE will restore the pre-DX8 versions of the files saved during the first IE install. A reversed order of installation (DX8 followed by IE 5.5) will not restore the original IE files when uninstalling/reinstallating IE. In this case, a workaround of uninstalling IE, followed by manually deleting dxtrans.dll and dxtmsft.dll, followed by reinstalling IE will result in the correct file versions being restored. An IE update is required to install/reinstall higher versions of these affected dll's without necessitating IE uninstallation/reinstallation. For those who have difficulties understanding the above message, here's the simple step-by-step procedure of the fix. 1. Uninstall IE (this step "may" be skipped). 2. Delete or move (recommended) these 2 files "dxtrans.dll" and "dxtmsft.dll" in your Windows system directory (c:\windows\system\) to somewhere else. 3. Reinstall IE 5.5 (if you skip the first step, make SURE that you do reinstall the WHOLE IE). This method did work for me.
