    Hi all..

    I just got my Windows Server 2003 X64 edition, and I'm having some problems..

    I'm trying to learn it for when I take my MCSE certs in the future, but I also am an occasional gamer..

    The desktop and applications are working great, but I'm having a problem getting any games to work!

    They all complain about Direct3D not being there, or DirectX, so I go to the microsoft website, authenticate my genuine version of windows, etc. then proceed to download the dxwebsetup.exe or whatever, but it instantly errors saying its incompatible with my version of Windows! What do I do! I'm dying without my gaming fix.. Does this mean I have to go with the 32 Bit version of Server 2003? How can there not be a directx for this version of Windows! I'm so mad right now..

    Please help ASAP! I'm dying over here!
