    I just bought Tiger Woods 2007, but I can't seem to get it to install. I get an error message saying that DirectX 9.0 or higher is needed. As you can see by the attached image, DirectX is installed on my system. Anyone have any ideas why I'm having problems? By the way, I just did a fresh install on my notebook a few days ago and I'm still having the same problem.

    Does the game come with its own version of DX to be installed? Because you clearly have the latest installed, you can do one of two things:

    1) install the bundled DX
    2) reinstall your DX 9.0c

    Thanks for the quick reply. Installation fails as soon as I get past the license agreement. I already tried reinstalling DirectX. Same problem. Any ideas?
