J.,

Thanks for the info.  Your first sentence is the answer I was hoping for.  I
bookmarked the buster site because I might possibly consider upgrading if I have
a safe method of uninstalling.  I had a problem with my P200 where the upgrade
to DirectX was apparently incompatible with my BIOS.  I ended up having to
reload the entire system.  I don't want to go through that again.
