D3dx9_34.dll Installaion On 64bit System
Dec 27, 2008
Bought new pc for xmas but my son is having an error come up when trying to run games. Seems to be quite a common one. d3dx9_34.dll missing, try reinstalling application. The tricky bit is that I am out of the country until the 15th Jan and therefore trying to help via phone and msgr. After research it has led me to Directx 9.c needing to be installed. My son did this but then got a conflict error with the the DirectX 10 that comes with Vista. After more searching I believe it is a case of installing the single d3dx9_34.dll file.
My question is where do I extract and install it to. Have read it needs to go into Sys32 folder whilst others have said Syswow64. Can someone please advice and please try to keep it simple as I need to explain i to my 12yr old. Running Vista Home premium 64 bit

My desktop has vista home premium and my laptop has win xp home. I have a music making hobby using Pro Tools 7.4 Im ready for another laptop and my alienware area 51 is too heavy for traveling. Im told that I can run vista on a mac book pro, they are regarded as being pretty stable and compatible with Pro Tools. But I need to find out if I will be able to run my other PC programs on the mac. Like excel, MS money, Second Copy, True Image, my kodak all in one printer, etc. Also: Pro Tools cannot run on a 64 bit system. Can someone answer this question?

and I was thinking about just going ahead and getting a high system, but in the 64bit flavor. My question is, can a 64bit system run 32bit games. I know some games are already out that run 64bit, but there are many more 32bit games that I am interested in right now.

Is there any utility or program that can tell whether your system is = using 64bit programs? I ask because I just installed Nitro PDR Pro 6 x64 and it installed it = in the x85 Programs Directory. There's no way I can even tell if a true = 64 bit program is actually being utilized in my 64 bit OS. I know I'm = being anal but with all the talk of 64 bit vs 32 bit, I started getting = curious. Seems that all the big box stores sell computers mostly with = 64 bit Windows installed but a great majority of the programs are 32 bit = (I know they don't make many).......

I purchased a digital update of Windows Vista Premium upgrade and the download won't load. I am useing a trial version of Windows XP 64-bit. I first used the digital locker a few times and it would stop at 99 percent and give a validation error. I figured it the locker was having a problem so i manual downloaded the three files through my internet browser. They downloaded fine without problems, but when I tried to run the Vista setup I ran into another error: 0x8007000D Windows was unable to create a required installation folder.

I'm running vista ultimate 32bit. Given that the hardware I have does support 64bit can I upgrade my installation with vista ultimate 64bit?

I'm struggling to find a clear answer on this. Within our environment, we've been ordering Dell PCs for quite some time. I've been told that about midway through the ordering of Dell GX620 Optiplexes that the cores went from single to dual. In effect, I've been advised that these machines and, subsequently everything we've ordered since, are considered 64bit compatible because they have two 32bit cores. Does that sound accurate? What I truly need to know is whether or not any of our PCs (Dell 745, 755 and 760 E8400 Core 2 Duo for desktop; P8400 for laptop) have 64bit hardware. If two 32bit cores mean that they're 64bit compatible, is that the same as being true 64bit? And, last but not least, will 64bit compatible hardware (assuming it's different than 64bit hardware) run a 64bit OS like Windows 7?

I have a disk with Ultimate 32 bit, now correct me if I'm wrong but areboth 32 bit and 64 bit on the disk and the only thing that distinguishesthem is the Activation code.If so can just the Activation code be purchased or would it have to be the full disk, we are talking OEM.I'm looking to triple boot, I already am dual booting with Premium 64
bit and Ultimate 32 bit, I have a second 320gb HDD with only about 10 gig on it, so should partition easily.

I was certain it didn't matter what RAM you had in your system when using a 64bit OS. But I had some store tech telling me that you needed RAM thats made for 64bit OS to get the most out of it.

i have been running xp pro and decided to try vista ultimate 64bit. the installation went very smoothly. i immediately loaded super pi and 3dmark06 to compare benchmark scores with xp pro. i was surprised to see that the vista scores were 10 to 15% slower. i loaded the latest gpu drivers and loaded the motherboard drivers from the installation disk.
should vista score less than xp pro or is there something i can do to correct this.

I have setup a home networking with 2 vista machines. One is 32bit OS and the other one is 64bit OS. I set up the workgroup, turned on File & Print Sharing, created shares on both PC's and gave permissions. From the 64bit Vista PC, it's working perfectly fine. I can see, connect and use the files. But from the 32bit os pc, I can see the 64bit pc and the "Network". But I cannot explore nor Map a Drive to 64bit PC.

I don't mean to sound like a total newb (which I am not, I am quite familliar with hacking my PSP and it's games and also my iPod so I know a little bit about computers) but I always wondered what the difference is between Windows Vista 32bit and Windows Vista 64bit. It would be nice to know but I don't entirely need t know.

I'm not sure which will run better on my system. I hear 64bit supposedly runs programs faster then 32bit does. i'm planning on getting vista ultimate. Also I play a lot of video games, i'm not sure if that would conflict with anything, and I also use a lot of programs (not specifically at once), though i heard 64bit can emulate 32bit only programs.

I've been having driver issues up the arse, and i want and end, a fresh start! I have looked how do format but its either something is missing or its totally different for me. I wack the windows disk in, boot from that. Then windows pretty much reinstalls, never giving me the option to format the hard drive. Maybe its a really small button that if you miss it you cant go back, but i cant find it

I just did a clean install of Vista 64 Home Premium and have run into a strange problem. I cannot log in to the XFX Support website using either 32 or 64 bit IE7 on the Vista machine. I can log in fine using an XP machine. Further when I tried to fill in the form to d/l the office 2007 trial version so I could import my mail folder from my backup disk into Vista Mail the form would reset everytime I selected the US as my country (was my only option, I assume since I had already input my state). In Firefox the form would appear to reload when I chose US but would keep everything I'd typed in as well as saving that I chose US. IE7 just wiped out all the text boxes and reset the country to choose country.
Needless to say since it blanked the form every time I couldn't get the trial initially. I've somewhat bypassed the problem by installing and using Firefox 3 which is not having either of these problems. The install was a clean install with nothing more than Vista, drivers and updates installed. P.S. I tried the IE7 group but they seemed to think I should post in the Vista groups

I just recently upgraded from Windows Home Premium 32bit to the 64bit version and I am having problems with it randomly freezing. The freeze up usually occurs when I am installing a program, just starting to download a file, and even sometimes when I am surfing the web. When my system freezes it like everything locks up...mouse, keyboard, HDD, monitor...everything. The only way to restore my system is a hard boot. I had no problems with Vista 32 bit and it ran well for almost a year so I have a feeling it is a software problem.....Not sure what is causing the freeze ups…sometimes it will run for hours and then freeze sometimes it will freeze 5min after I boot it up…seems to always happen when I’m doing something in windows…

recently bought solidwork student edition which, as i now know, doesnt run on vista 64bit. It would be too expensive to buy the premium version of solidworks as im a student! The only option i can think of to get solidworks to run is to downgrade to 32bit OS, maybe business or ultimate. My CPU is running at 64bit. Will this still all work? Or any better ideas?

i recently got a new computer which came with a home premium 32bit. I know the computer can handle the 64 bit upgrade so i brought the upgrade CD from Microsoft. It says it can be upgrade anytime and when i put it in it, it come out with this message. "Setup cannot be run on this version of the Operating System. To install Windows please try booting from the install media." does anyone know how i should install it and why does it say it can't be run on this version of the operating system?

I am currently using a vista ultimate 32bit machine for Photoshop drawings. As these images can become very large (up to 4gb in size) I am using my second drive as a scratch disk which slows thing down. My system has 4 gb ram but 32 bit only sees 3gb and I would like to utilize the extra gig and maybe add a further 2 or 4 gigs in the future - hence the upgrade to vista 64bit. Before I do, I have a few issues/queries.
1. I will buy a new hard drive to install the 64bit OS as a clean install and leave my 32bit OS on it's original disk incase it all goes horribly wrong. As I will now have three hard drives installed will this affect the installation of vista 64 bit? Will it interfere with the 32 bit versions boot sector?.... as I may need to swap back
2. I've read that vista 64bit has problems installing with 4gb ram installed. Is this true? Seems really odd if this is the case...............

I recently purchased an OEM version of Vista Home Premium 64bit. Stupid mistake, as my machine (AMD Athlon64 5600+X2 Dual Core, 4gb ram) can only run 32bit. Since I was already running a "lite version" of the 32bit software in my pc, I decided to enter the license key and activate the program. I have downloaded all updates available through WU, but so far no SP1. I checked the forum and followed some instructions about updating drivers etc in order to finally get SP1 through WU, but have had no success so far. Since my "lite version" is missing some components, I was wondering if there is anyway I can get the correct 32bit version from Microsoft, after all my license key should be go for both 64bit and 32bit.
