  I tried everything to fix this. The whole installation is going well until it gets to 100% and then says: "updating system settings" indefinitely.

• Cannot install Google earth. Error in the administrator account: "your system administrator set policies against the installation of this program.

  Original title: why not my Windows XP SP3 machine allows installation of any product from google?

  I am running Windows XP SP3 and what-so-ever did not want to upgrade to Vista or Win7.
  Now I try to install google earth, what is happening is the setup.exe for downloading google earth data, but will not perform the installation process.

  I get an error message saying that "the installation failed, try again."
  So I asked google if he could understand that out and they were no help, so I decided to use the administrator account on my computer to install it, what was interesting on this topic (and disturbing) was that after running the same setup.exe file, a different error came up saying that "your system administrator set policies against installing this program" (or something like that)
  now, I checked everything in "Political system" under administrative options, but still no help.
  Can someone help me please?

  It should run with zero problems. You will receive a message saying that it is not compatible, but you can just click Ok and continue with the installation. I installed it on two PCs at home for multiplayer, and it runs great!

• System does not start after the installation of update (10thFeb10)

  Updates to auto (windows Update) using.  Downloaded automatically update yesterday (10thFeb10) and when I shut my computer down it started to install them - as usuall.  However start my computer than this 11thFeb10 am and he began to run through regestry files when starting up.  Then it is impossible to load windows.  Just went to a blank screen.  Rebooted several times and were able to start it in safe mode.  Tried system restore but the same thing happens.  Obviously there was something to this update that 'changed' my computer and I'm not happy about it!  Also thought that there could be new updates (perhaps to fix the last update) but I can not even Windows Update to open it.  Tried online and he tells me that I have never downloaded updates and that none are available.

  I use Windows Vista Ultimate x 86.  I hope someone can help me!

  Got a response from Ms.  Good all who have this problem - you have an ATI Radeon graphics card?  Driver is causing the conflict.  Uninstall all the stuff ATI goes on ATI web site and install the download of 'single driver '.  Reboot and then you can download and install other fancy programs that come with your graphics card.

• Age of Empires II - "can't initialize graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw.

  Hello

  I have a problem of Age of Empires 2 running on my new computer. Keeps displaying the following error message: "cannot initialize the graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw. "Someone at - it solutions to this? I have already visited many forums and trying different solutions; None of them helped.

  Tried solutions: change the compatibility and as an administrator, switching to 16-bit color, turn off my graphics card, execution of the extension "nostartup" of the game, looking for old patches from Microsoft (which most are now unavailable due to the game being so old). I KNOW that others have been able to get this game to work on the Windows 7 operating system, but with a few other quirks and I KNOW my video card and driver are more than capable of handling this game. Any suggestions?

  System Specs:

  System manufacturer/model number Dell/Studio 540
  Operating system windows 7 home premium 32 bit
  6 GB of memory
  Graphics card ATI Radeon HD 4350
  Monitor (s) displays Reference Dell ST2410

  I had the above problem with AOEII:Age of the Kings. My brief spec is Windows 7 Ultimate edition (SP1) and a card nVidia 8600 GT. I did the following (make sure you reboot after each installation):

  Make sure that you are running the latest patch of AOEII:AOK (2. 0 a):

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=35

  Download and install the latest version of DirectX:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=5264

  Download and install the latest nVidia Driver suite. I left the autodetect my card software and reset all my default settings. I also installed the full software suite:

  http://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

  Finally, right click on the shortcut of AOE and click Properties. Click on the Compatibility tab and select the following:

  -Run this program in compatibility mode - choose Windows XP Service Pack 2 (!) NOT 3!)
  -Disable visual themes
  -Disable the Composition of the Bureau
  -Run this program as an administrator

  One of the above options maybe work on its own, but that's what I had to do to make it work and I tested it after each step.

  Good luck!

• Age of Empires 3 does not start on a vista machine, get this error "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires III\d3dx9_25.dll is not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error."

  I'm trying to play age of Empires 3 on my computer running windows vista Home premium and the program does not start. I get the error message: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires III\d3dx9_25.dll is not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error." I tried many suggestions from Microsoft (resettlement program, reinstall in safe mode, update & reinstall the drivers for my video card, the compatibility issues with vista, updating and reinstalling directx 9.0 c, install vista service packs 1 & 2) but nothing has worked so far. I was able to play the game on the same computer with windows xp installed (it's a different hard drive that is not in the computer, and everything is the same) and it worked fine. My computer is old enough, but like I said the game worked before installing vista. ASUS A7N8x deluxe, AMD Athlon xp 3200 +, ATI radeon 9600, 2 GB OCZ ram that all suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

  Hi Raygun55,

  Welcome to Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

  This problem may occur if the Microsoft DirectX file that is mentioned in the error message is damaged or is not copied correctly.

  I suggest that you copy the file manually by following the steps and check if you are able to play the game without any problems:

  Manually copy the file

  To do this on a computer that is running Windows Vista, follow these steps:

  1 insert the disc 1 CD for one of the following games into the player from the computer:

  o Age of Empires III

  o Fable: The Lost Chapters

  o Zoo Tycoon 2

  o Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends

  2. click on start to reduce this includes this image and then click Documents.

  3. Locate, and then click computer.

  4. search and then click on the CD drive.

  5. Locate and then click the following folder:

  CD player :\ DirectX9

  Note In this folder path, the CD player represents the drive letter of the CD drive.

  6 double-click on Apr2005_d3dx9_25_x86.cab, right click on d3dx9_25.dlland then click copy.

  In Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends, double click Aug2005_d3dx9_27_x64.cab right-click d3dx9_27.dlland then click copy.

  Note Use the Apr2005_d3dx9_25_x64.cab file for the x 64 version of the Windows operating system.

  7. find one or more of the following folders, depending on the games that are installed on the computer:

  By car : \Program Files\Microsoft: Age of Empires III

  By car : \Program Files\Microsoft Games\Fable - The Lost Chapters

  By car : \Program Files\Microsoft Games\Zoo Tycoon 2

  By car : \Program Files\Microsoft Games\Rise of legends

  Note In these folder paths, drive represents the letter of the drive where the game is installed.

  8. right click on the folder of the game which is the part that is installed on the computer, and then click Paste.

  Note If you have installed more than one game on the computer, repeat steps 5 and 6 for the other games.

  You can check the link for more information: error message when you try to start a Microsoft game: "the file d3dx9_XX. DLL was not found": http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910813

  Alternatively, you can try to install the game in XP compatibility mode and check if you are able to play or not.

  Right-click on the game > click Properties > click on the Compatibility tab > select for XP compatibility mode > click OK.

  Let me know if it worked.

• Re: Tecra M2 - age of empires II - all features?

  Hello

  I have a microsoft, called «the age of empire II» game
  Everything works fine, but some features are 'out '.

  For military units, I don't have the choice of attitudes (position, defence, attack...) I do not see the 'icons', and the shortcuts don't work.

  I have XP spec3 of the window and I loaded the latest Direct X.

  For the verification of my own game, I loaded a trial version of microsoft, and I have the same problem.

  I also have a very old Toshiba satellite pro, and on this "old" everything works!

  Do you know if Microsoft has a forum on this kind of problem?

  Thank you
