I've taken it upon myself to try to get the GT Interactive Game "Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds" working under NT4. The game, on standard NT4, complains about "Direct X 5 is not installed on this computer", even when you use the Direct X 5 hack that's currently floating around. I'm suspicious that the problem is the Direct X version number, which is noted under the DX control panel Icon as being -1, though all the drivers themselves are listed as version 5. I suspect I may be a mere registry tweek away from getting this game working under NT4. Does anyone know how to tweek the registry so it comes up as having a legitimate version 5?
