From what I can tell on MS's site, the only way to get DX8.1b for XP is to install SP1. I did that, but UT2k3 still crashes for me . Maybe you'll have better luck.
I think there's a link to get it from MS's website for XP without upgrading to SP1 but I don't remember it. Either way, I'm pretty sure it will be bundled with UT 2k3 in the full version...
Welp, about half the DX files' creation dates coincide with SP1's (end of Aug) so SP1 does seem to be the source for the latest and greatest it is just that the version number is not updated for some reason as with 2000.
