Didn't Let It Install Quicktime 4 Or DirectX 6
Mar 23, 2008
Decided to replay the whole Myst series, so got the compilation set of parts 1 to 5. Installing on Vista Ultimate x64 (4Gb memory, Nvidia 8800GTX, etc) Myst (masterpiece edition) installs OK (just didn't let it install Quicktime 4 or directX 6 !)Can it really be possible that the original is dated 1993 ? (even this version is 1999)Forgot how little of the screen it used (especially in the middle of a 24"
widescreen)Is there any known way of forcing it to resize ? Masterpiece Edition ? Still looks like the old Myst to me. What about RealMyst ? Should I be substituting that for this first part.
Won't install.Presumably its a 16 bit installer (which of course won't run on x64) even though Riven itself is obviously 32 bit.Anyone know of a 32 bit installer ?Otherwise I am stuck with XP 32 on a laptop.Annoying as this is the one that I really wanted to play (1) never finished it the first time (2) on a bigger screen

I purchased a download of this game from The Adventure Company website. All went well with the install until asked if I wanted to install DirectX 9.0. I chose to knowing that I have DirectX 10 on this system but had the following error message:
"Unble to execute File: C:programflile?can'treadmyownwriting?dreamfalldirectx dxsetup.exe Create process failed; code 740. The requested operation requires elevation." Then, when attempting to run the game, I get a message saying that D3DX9_27.DLL can't be found. The DX9 folder located in the Dreamfall folder is empty.
I uninstalled and reinstalled during which I snooped in the DirectX 9 folder (Dreamfall program files, directx folder) and found the missing .dll file and copied it to an empty folder in my documents prior to asking it to install DX9 of which the install again failed (and the DX folder emptied). I tried pasting the missing .dll into the Dreamfall folder and up came another error message when trying to run the game. I read that one could either paste d3dx9_27.dll into the sys32 folder or download & install DX9 from the Microsoft website but I'm scared to do so in case either of these solutions screws up DX 10.

I have three Vista machines on my home network (2 Ultimate, 1 Home Premium - all dual core, not too old). Vista runs great on all three machines except that when I try to copy files over my network, I see that dreaded "Calculating Time Remaining" and nothing happens. Sometimes it may copy one file over but that's it. Then it hangs forever. when I click "Cancel" it still hangs and I end up rebooting.
I waiting patiently for SP1, only to find that it made absolutely no difference and did not solve the problem. I have scoured the web for suggestions and done everything from turning off remote compression to disabling UAC yadda yadda yadda.

I have a Dell Inspirion E1505. 1.73ghz core duo, 2 gb Ram, 80gb hdd. I had been running Linux on my laptop. It ran fine. I decided to sell the laptop and realized I'd have to re-install the Vista OS that came with the computer. After a successful install and the downloading of all updates, including SP1, I noticed a problem when I attempted to change my power options. When I clicked on the drop down menu, it showed me all the options, I chose what I wanted and when it retracted, it went through every option and then settled on the one at the top of the list. It did this numerous times. I then clicked on set to default and that worked. I had downloaded spybot search and destroy and attempted to install it. When it came to the select language portion, it was on Afrikaans (top of the list), I attempted to change it to english and it would quickly rotate through all the languages and stop on Afrikaans, again, numerous times. I googled the problem to no avail. I then figured that one of the updates had a corrupted file or something and restored the syatem to the very first point, again to no avail. I then decided to do a repair install, that didn't work. I then decided to do a complete re-install, when I get to the set the time and date,I choose Eastern Standard Time and it then rotates through all the choices in seconds and stops at the very top one. I am Lost and could sure

I attempted to install Vista Ultimate 64 (w/SP1) with 4GB. Didn't work - BSOD. I took 1 stick out so now I had 2GB. After about 5 reboots, I finally got Vista to install. However, as soon as I'd install the latest gfx driver (175.16-Vista64) it would crash. I spent hours on the phone with Microsoft - they couldn't solve it. Called EVGA, they said they hadn't heard of any problems with the latest driver. I installed an older driver (169.25) and got it work. I never got the system stable, and I don't think it's the gfx card.
I tried installing Gears of War, which seemed to install just fine, however, if I started to do something else (I tried this twice) it would give me a BSOD. Then, I tried installing it and nothing else. It crashed on it's own giving me a BSOD. Another time I was just looking around the features in Control Panel and it crashed. Bottom line - it was never very stable.
I decided to format my drive and start fresh. This time, I could get the Vista disc to load and install, but it would crash at various places during install (sometimes after "Installing Features," but most of the time just before it would finish - so about 30-45 minutes into the installation). The errors I have received are the following (but not limited to, ):........

Im assuming that Vista has come with DirectX10 already installed on it? Correct? I was wondering if I have to install DirectX 9 on my computer as well to get Medieval II to work since it says that DirectX 9 is required?

I recently have been trying to transfer some footage I took with a camera off a MicroSD card to my computer, but when I go to copy the file, I get an error bubble on the taskbar saying
"QuickTimePlayerMain: QuickTimePlayer.exe - Corrupt File
The file or directory /DCIM/100MEDIA/FILE001.MOV is corrupt and unreadable.
Please run the Chkdsk utility"
I opened up Chkdsk on my laptop and opened up Chkdsk as administrator (Whenever I just double clicked the command prompt box for Chkdsk would just appear then dissappear)
I tried to type in a command prompt after Chkdsk asked me the file type in the fist line but no input would occur. It then began to check itself and everything on the computer.
I would really like to retrieve the footage on the card since I will never be able to capture those memories again.

Since I use the x64 version of Vista, I am plagued with Quicktime's black bar, like everyone else out there on x64. I just find it ridiculous that after more than a year, this bug still remains. Makes me wonder if they may have even purposely put it there because I'm sure they aren't making any effort in fixing it. The only way that I know of to be able to see the bar is by running the browser in compatibility mode for Windows XP. I would do that, but the problem is that Vista then changes the Aero to Basic until the browser is closed. So you either:
1. Live with the black Quicktime progress bar.
2. Run the browser in compatibility mode and live with a changing theme (and if you already use the Basic theme by default, you're lucky)
Now, I know there's a program called Quicktime Alternative(QA) that basically provides the core functions of Quicktime, while letting you watch most anything that's in a Quicktime format through Media Player Classic. Question is, since I have to uninstall the original Quicktime to use QA, would it affect my iTunes? Do you guys know if QA can also do Quicktime's virtual tours and 360* views?
I also have the Vista Codecs installed, and for those of you that don't know, there's a Quicktime codec in there. While I get a better balance of colors in WMP than in Quicktime, the volume of the audio is too loud and distorts (not distorts the speakers, but the audio itself). So I don't know what else I can do... I am open to anything that doesn't involve changing themes or black bars...

My computer was working with no problems at all until I decided to download the latest versions of Itunes(7.6.2)/Quicktime(7.5) for some music shopping. At first, everything was still working as usual and I could play my purchased and downloaded music with itunes,winamp and the media player with no issues whatsoever.At the end of my session, I switched off my PC. The next day, however, my sound had completely vanished from my system. I don't get any system sounds,music,streaming audio... nothing at all.After I browsed a multitude of forums, both Apple and Vista, I still could not figure out what my issue was, as I had no hardware issues up to the itunes/quicktime installation. Nothing is muted. Speakers worked fine before the reboot. My Soundblaster X-Fi ExtremeMusic has all the necessary drivers installed and is being recognised fine. My onboard audio is disabled through BIOS. All my codecs and players were working fine until I rebooted, after installing itunes/quicktime.I was using a multitude of players without issues. (Zoom Player,CoreMediaPlayer,Winamp,VLC all worked fine). I used system restore twice, without success. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling codecs and players, without success. Uninstalling itunes/quicktime didn't help.
I'm at my wits' end. The problem clearly lies with the itunes/quicktime installation and something it did with my sound output or registry. I think I'm not the only one with this problem, but none of the suggested workarounds/fixes worked for me. I hope someone who had a similar issue can help me fix this, because I really don't want to format and reinstall everything from scratch.

This may have been answered but I'm slow. I just bought a new system that has Vista 64 on it. I am trying to install [game] and keep getting a message that I need DirectX 9.0c or later. I have DirectX 10 and keep downloading 9.0c. However when I try to load my game I still get the message that I need 9.0c version or later.

I can't get directx 10 to run on any games I play. For example, Team Fortress 2. The option to change which direcx version to use is grayed out, and it's on direct x 9 on both hardware and software.My specs: I'm running Windows Vista home premium (32 bit), and dxdiag confirms DirectX 10 is installed. I have an Intel Core 2 6600, and 4 gigs of ram. The video card I'm running is the MIS Geforce 8800 GTS, updated to the latest drivers (drivers released may 13th 2008). I have dual monitors, the main one running at a 1680 x 1050 resolution, and my secondary running at a 1280 x 1024 resolution. When I set some game options to run at direct x 10, they will fail to load at all. With more and more directx 10 games on the way.

I got FSX Deluxe today and after running both disks and installing the game I get a notice saying: "Flight Simulator cannot run because the version of Microsoft DirectX(R) installed on your computer is incompatible. Please reinstall DirectX 9.0 by running Flight Simulator Setup, or download the current version from www.microsoft.com/directx."
I have downloaded the November 2008 Update from several websites and I am able to run them and get to the point that it brings up the "Installing Components" screen and then a notice comes up saying: "Setup has detected one or more DirectX component files are in-use by an application. Please exit all applications before running DirectX setup agian." After that it brings up a screen saying that the installation has failed with a "finish" button. I have closed all files and tried agian, restarted my computer and tried, turned my computer all the way off let it sit and read it a story and tried agian, I have combed through the processes in Task Manager and removed any that I believe could have been using DirectX and tried all the combinations above agian.
I am running a Dell Inspiron 1525 with 32 bit Vista Ultimate, and haven't had problems with any other games up to this point (World of Warcraft, Age of Empires, Halo, ect.). I am sorry if this is a repeat thread, I've been all over the place looking for possible answers and haven't found anything.

My laptop (Hp Pavilion dv6500 Notebook Pc) had a crash yesterday but after shutting it down and restarting it, all seemd to be normal. But today when I wanted to play some Generals I got a nasty suprise. I started up the game and I got a message saying I didn't have the right directx version. This is weird since I've been playing the game for almost a year now on this laptop. Anyway, I thought maybe something got corrupted after the crash. I startend another game just to make sure and it too gave me an error that I didn't had a proper directx version.
So I checked dxdiag and it said I had directx 10 as my latest version, which is what I had before the crash. I've updated all my drivers, reinstalled directx and reinstalled my games but nothing seems to work. I hope someone could point me out a direction that might help me fix this problem. I'm a student I seriously need my games for some relaxation .

I have a brand new latest Intel chipped nVidia SLI PC with Vista Home Premium 64 bit OS. I am trying to update DirectX to 9.0c and get an installation failure which states "A cabinet file necessary for installation cannot be trusted. Please verify the Cryptographic Services are enabled and the cabinet file certificate is valid".
1) Checked that the Cryptographic Services are set to automatic
2) Run DXWebSetup as Administrator
3) Used RegSvr32 across all the crypto DLLs.
4) Unchecked the Certificate check boxes in IE / Tools / Options / Advanced....
I cannot check the validity of the cabinet file certificate as it is probably on-line and I have no idea where it is!! What is frustrating is that all Vista Drivers are signed by my companies Time Stamp Server....maybe the certificate on this cabinet file has expired....anyway - This must be a common problem (judging by the forums) but there is no Microsoft documented solution.

The redistributable is still showing Aug. 08.

Attempted to download Trial version of spore, a error pop up said: "this application has failed to start because d3dx9_27.dll was not found re-installing the application may fix this problem." couldn't figure out what was wrong (even after choosing the yes option to get the directx 9.0 that it offered) didn't notice a change, yet i didn't do much on my computer at that point (possible problem in spider solitaire) Installed Spore on Computer, said didn't have correct DirectX, clicked yes and went through installation of DirectX9 Didn't have d3dx9_27.dll error pop up again, but believed that somehow downloaded something when tried to fix computer when had problem with trial version (husband's computer had pop up,
he found the dll and added it to spore bin, he hasn't noticed similar problem on his laptop, he has a replica of my computer) Noticed that spider solitaire had major problem. Loaded game and noticed major graphics problem. Also noticed that problem let up a small bit as game continued running. Noticed that rendering of creature "skins" was quite slow. Did system restore to day before trial download. Found that spider solitaire looked like it should. Attempted to start spore, got dll error. Did as husband had done, found dll, put in sporeapp folder. Game started, still have graphics problem. Spider solitaire is screwed up again. I have also attempted to update my drivers (no luck)........
