I just upgraded my mother board and had to do a fresh install for FSX. Once I installed FSX I rebooted and then clicked on it to open it up and everything was fine. I then dowloaded FSX acceleration and tried opening up FSX but I get an error that says I need to install DirectX 9.0. I tried to install it from disc 1 of FSX but I get a message saying the path cant be found and I am having a hard time trying to locate DirectX 9.0 on the web. Any hellp would be greatly appreciately.

Well here we go with the Acceleration install error....doesn't prompt me to enter the key code for activation so now I can only fly the sim for 30 minutes before it kicks me off. I searched for a fix in different threads but can't find the registry file they tak about. I have windows 7 64 bit, so for right now I am at a loss. Anybody have a fix for this for Windows 7
