Microsoft DirectX is a group of technologies designed to make
Windows-based PCs an ideal platform for running and displaying
applications rich in multimedia elements such as full- color graphics,
3D animation, video and rich audio.
DirectX 9.0 includes security
and performance updates, along with many new features across all
technologies, which can be accessed by applications using the DirectX
9.0 APIs.
DirectX 9.0 End-User Runtime setup minimizes the download size but requires an internet connection during setup.
The
DirectX 9.0 Redist is available for download for those users that do
not have an internet connection available during installation or Setup
has trouble connecting to the Microsoft server.
