Directx Problem

[alpha]

in the directx diagnostic tool I saw that all the .dll files are "final retail" whereas mfc42.dll is "beta retail". what does beta retail mean? could it mean that it may be faulty?
When I do the direct3d test direct 7 and 9 work fine but on direct3d 8 interfaces test it says
"test failed at step 5 (GetDeviceCaps): 'some alphabets and numbers here' (3d not available) "
some games of mine are not working (gta3, warcraft3...) could this be due to the directx problem? Any ideas on how i can fix it.
the games worked fine on the computer of a friend of mine.

my video card is intel 810.
ram 256
pentium 3 1133mhz

thanx

Does that card have 3d capability?

yes it does.
as I said direct 3d 7 and direct 3d 9 interfaces work fine, they passed the test.

I thought by loading 9 the games would work but apparently i need 8 to work.
