Can I update last Directx 9.0 c?

I had problems with WoW lately, leading me to try to update all my drivers and others.  I have Directx 9 .0c since then, many moons, too long to remember exactly, but I think that it is an earlier version originally provided with my system.  My system is:
Dell Insipiron XPS (original form of the computer laptop xps)
Pentium 4 3.4 GHz
1 g RAM
ATI Radeon 9800 M
Onboard SigmaTel C-Major
Windows XP Home SP 3 Version 2002 (for some reason, system is not so old)

I tried to update Directx tonite to the version of August 2009 at the http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=04AC064B-00D1-474E-B7B1-442D8712D553&displayLang=en
After the extract to a temporary folder, I did, I ran DXSETUP.exe, the supermarket in addition to cab file and the dll 2.  I accept the argeement, he doesn't give me other options and after a few moments, tell me everything has been updated as appropriate.  But when I opened then dxdiag, it still says I have directx 9 .0c.
I did something wrong?  Was I supposed to extract the download to a part of the live repertoire? (I have not saw that it said anywhere).  I understand that my hardware is old and not be able to take advantage of the new graphical features of dx11 etc, but I at least thought that diagnostic tests and other features would be able to update past dx9.
Is the last version that this laptop will never be able to handle DirectX 9 .0c?

Unfortunately, you are correct that XP does not support Directx 10 or later.  In order to use Directx 10 or later, you need to upgrade your operating system.

  • Performance of poor game after the last update of DirectX. Can't go back.

    SUP ppl,
    I did a clean install of Windows 7 on my laptop Dell D510 crap, then install the drivers for my on-board Intel 915GM video card. I then installed brothers in arms and hidden and dangerous 2. When I started up the two games, they ran very choppy, practically unplayable. After some troubleshooting, I realized that if I installed the DirectX 9.0 c time (installation offline, by using the web update does not help) on top of the DirectX11 that comes with Windows 7, I started again two shooting games and they ran virtually perfect.

    After a while, I thought I'd go to install the Feb 2010 update of DirectX to see if the games would be even better, but after the update, games work again restless. I mean, BiA is running at 6 frames per second on average, H & D2 a little better at about 12 frames per second on average.

    Given that I had not many apps installed, I format the drive and did a clean install again, reinstalled both games, they ran like _, so I reinstalled the redist to 9.0 c DX, games went very well and I made the mistake of trying the latest version of DirectX again, and games ran as _. Once again! Whenever I run the update to 9.0 c, the screen with the installation just flashes and then I get a message saying that the components are already installed.

    I really don't want to reinstall Windows 7 again. I tried restoring the system (before the DX installation), Windows Update, the System File Checker, I didn't even look in the 9 .0c *. CAB files, search the Windows folder for files, took possession of them, then deleted, but the update always refuse to work. I'm here to ask if the following is possible:

    1 go back to the original DirectX 11, so I can install update DX 9.0 c.
    2 uninstall/delete the DirectX (on the MS site, it says it is not possible and I have to use the system restore.) WOW)
    3 anything else someone can suggest. Please, I beg you.

    Also, I read a ton of messages on the net saying that you need not DX 9, because the DX 11 is backward compatible, so on and so of suite, so please don't need to hear all that again.

    Thank you :|

  • Updated FireFox, restarted and now it will not open the browser, even if the icon does not appear in my taskbar. Was fine until the update last night. Win8.1 running

    When I move the mouse over the icon in the taskbar that appears after that I have I dbl-clicked on the icon on the desktop, you can see a miniature version of the browser open as usual, unfortunately, the browser will not open upward on the desktop. I've deleted and reinstalled several times. It has worked very well until I did the update last night.

    Machine features:
    8.1 to win
    16 GB of RAM
    3 video concerts
    Processor AMD FX-6200 6 3.80 Ghz
    64 bit

    Sometimes, a window is "off the screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

    A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt.

    #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

    Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

    Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or the search for the start bar menu (or perhaps 8.x for Windows search of charms bar bar?) type or paste the following and press ENTER to drill down to the profiles folder:

    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

    Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

  • Since the update last night (05/02/2013) we are unable to access the internet.

    My son says that there is an update last night when he was on the computer and the browser only, that we can use to access the internet now is Windows Internet Explorer. I tried all of the recommended patches and it still does not work.

    3. Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the article to Uninstall Firefox .

    IMPORTANT: Under Windows, the uninstall program has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you have not check this option. If not all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, customizations and other Firefox data user profile will be removed from your computer.

    After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the folder of the program "Mozilla Firefox", located by default in one of the following locations:

    • (Windows 32-bit) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    • (On 64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
    1. Go to the Windows Start menu and click on 'computer '.
    2. In the Explorer window that opens, double-click on disk Local (c) to open the C:\ drive.
    3. Find the folder "Program Files (x 86)" or "Program Files".
      • On 32-bit Windows, double-click the Program Files folder to open it.
      • On 64-bit Windows, you'll see a folder "Program Files (x 86)" AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the Program Files (x 86) folder.
    4. You are looking for a folder of Mozilla Firefox . If you find one, right click and select delete and confirm that you want to move the folder to the trash.

    Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:

    1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
    2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    I have more than music in itunes my ipod can hold, the last time I synced, there was a box to synchronize playlists only, now it's over so how can I now sync playlists only, you can see?

    Select the iPod in iTunes (click on its button on the device on the horizontal bar) to show its settings screen in the iTunes window.  The side left (in the sidebar), under settings, click music.  To the right, the settings screen of music from iPod, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.

    NOTE: All of the songs on the iPod that are not in your iTunes library (on the computer) will be lost.

    Check the box to Sync music (if it isn't already).  Below, choose the option synchronize playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Below, under playlists, select (check) the playlists you want on the iPod.  You can also select other articles on other lists, as you wish.  Click Apply to sync your selection to iPod.

    Further, iTunes automatically updated the iPod with the changes made to the selected part of the iTunes music library.  For example, if you update a list of selected reading (add/remove songs), updates iTunes, the iPod with the same changes the next time you connect (or click Sync if already connected).

  • Can't update without Windows of self-destruction!

    After the update a few weeks ago... Bad software removal tool... My father PC had white exclamation points all on that screen P.O.S.T.... then the screen would go and NOTHING...! Restart, and then go to the Startup Repair tool... Windows Startup Repair tool cannot fix... you want to restore?... long story short... so the only thing that worked was a REINSTALL FACTORY...

    NOW... I can't update anything... Update Windows and not even a no driver for the graphics card! If I... I will return to white exclamation on fullscreen P.O.S.T.... then NOTHING... points! I've restored the system several times and tried to update, only to have this accident to happen once I update... There's something like 83 updates and it's too much to try to step up to the problem... Heck I think is not yet get it until the first service pack!

    On top of OFF... Microsoft tool for support does not even recognize its product ID... even when I enter it manually... all YES, I'm in the correct information!

    As you can imagine, it's really a bad situation and bad support (no I don't want to pay Microsoft an another $50) it made it worse. After buying Windows since Win95, Xbox, 4 Xbox 360 (thanks to free material you knew was broken) and a Zune... I really think to change and do not return!

    Someone at - he lived it and managed to isolate the problem... I have the exact system he has, even screen, same graphics card, etc... and I am able to update without ANY problem!

    Thanks in advance! And sorry if I'm angry... I worked on it for about the last three weeks!
