DirectX incompatible with Steam games.
I can no longer play all the games that I downloaded and purchased through steam because the steam says that I have not downloaded DirectX.
I tried to reinstall DirectX, but he always tells me that the installation failed. So I contacted the Steam support and we went back on the issue and they suggest that speak to you guys to see if you guys can help me reinstall DirectX and go from there.
All help to explain how to solve this problem would be highly appreciated.
Direct X is fully compatible with all games of 'steam '. Compatibility actually works the opposite effect
round. Games must be designed to be "compatible" with the DX files they need.
Steam is just a distributor online games (games of Valve with the exception).
If you use the installation of Direct X Web program and receive error messages instead of something to the effect that Direct X is already up to date then you will need to use the
Direct X Redistributable package install June 2010, as you may have a corrupted the DX file.
The Web Installer does not overwrite the files, but will the Redistributable.
Brand new Win7 installation to run the Web Installer to update some d3dx9
files that were missing from the Win7 installation and add a few new DX10 and 11 files.

Processor AMD FX incompatible with steam
A few months ago, I bought a HP desktop computer new with a top of the processor AMD FX line. However, it seems that there are some problems with them and the Steam game platform. Several games doesn't work, such as Total War: Shogun 2, with an AMD FX processor. It is a problem experienced by AMD, and all the major motherboard companies have fixed their BIOS to solve the problem. (See: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/STEAMGamesonAMDFXplatforms.aspx ) However, as HP customizes their motherboards, none of these fixes work. When HP will address this issue? I got several tickets and emails about it so far.
Thank you
Ok. It seems that your PC BIOS has been updated (I think it's the BIOS of your PC, but check template in the page header and the version of the OS just to be sure):
This should be what you need. I hope this helps and thanks for the comments.

MS Info
I need to send a file Ms Info to Wb tech support so that they can help me with the game on steam download. Whenever they open the file it says it gives the following message "information MS cannot open this file. The file may be corrupt or incompatible with this version of the information system. "I tried to open it too and had the same error message how can I send a file not corrupted for them?
Information MS cannot open this file.
They should use Notepad to open the file when it is a txt file.
Another way to create a portable system information file is to select the hotkey Win + R, type msinfo32 , and press ENTER . Click file, Save and name the file. This method creates a file with an extension of nfo file. Perhaps the recipient expects the file in this format.

Steam games crash computer bought in 2013
I play online games. When I've had problems, it's because of the video card and some browser settings. Some games will not play on the ATI Radeon HD graphics cards and some will not play on NVIDIA cards. This is a known issue with some Steam games.
Steam users forumsin place, I went to find out what was the matter.
You should check in the section help & tips advice.
I found that my Radeon ATI\AMD video card was causing the problem. I changed to a NVIDIA card and have not had a problem with a Steam game since. If you have a mid-range graphics card, you should be able to play any game from steam. Mine is a model of NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 it.

Rome 1 incompatible with my computer
so I want to play in rome total war on my computer its seven windows and was purchased in 2007, but the game came out in 2005, and the game says that it's incompatible with my computer tried everything please help
I play RTW on W7 64-bit, and after a little violin, it seems to install and run OK.
There was a recent update of MS which stopped in some versions of the game running, see http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-gaming/kb3086255-is-this-a-half-baked-solution-or-am-i/13d4c03e-f04f-40b9-b438-e903eda3cab9 and workaround as of 18-Sep-2015, that worked for me and others. All the details are in the post and article KB of MS which is linked.
In addition, on W7 64 bit I should not install it in a folder created manually, rather than the default values, and there were a few updates to install in this folder as well. If I let him use the default automatic installation location then the game wouldn't go for me. More details - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-gaming/irome-total-war-will-not-run-in-wincows-7/8f0f5f78-b093-4469-9a9e-f6e958e696e4
If you can try to uninstall the game and then put it back in place in a specific manually created the folder and then install the patches on this same folder, then see if that runs. You may also need to play with the service mentioned in the first link above. Alternatively, you can try to update your video card drivers to the latest compatible drivers available for your model of PC and specific from PC manufacturers support web site.
If this does not help, please report it back with all the most relevant data, as any exact error message or the error number that is reported when the game fails, and the details of your PC and operating system.

Why World of warcraft is suddenly incompatible with windows 7?
I just discovered that World of Warcraft is suddenly incompatible with windows 7. Why is it so?
Diana
Mine works fine.Open WoW and to the upper left corner of the pitcher go to options > game preferences > uncheck 64 bit if it is.It is copied from a blue response on the WoW forumWith the release of Patch 5.0 and Pandaria mists, the repair tool was wrapped in the game. The game will now be stream repair automatically when it detects corrupted data files.There's always ways for the repair feature must be blocked to fail. In these cases, you will still encounter an error, but there are some things that you can do to solve the problem.
Please note that if you have or find an old copy of the repair tool, it will not work with the current game. The old repair tool cannot identify the current version of the game and only tell you to reinstall. This isn't always the best answer, so I would recommend first using the link above.

My Dashlane 3.0.3 is incompatible with Firefox 31.0. I meet this problem every time there is a new version of Firefox. In the past, I would go to the archives and get a Firefox from a number of earlier version and load this. For some reason, (probably simple). I will load the lower version and it will automatically install the next version number. I can't stop the automatic updates. I had installed Firefox 30.0 and it worked with Dashlane 3.0.3 but the system automatically downloaded the version more recent 31.0 number and of course, this is inconsistent. Dashlane is not able to write codes fast enough to install in due course to work with Firefox. I did was to say that Firefox was the only browser that I use and I used it for many years. I don't like Crome or IE. You're just a browser better, that's all.
I didn't mean that somewhere, I lost my toolbar in Firefox and could not find a use which was also good. Just an info. You can send me any resolution you can find at: [email protected]
Thank you for your help.You should not use older versions of Firefox, they are insecure, their use can lead to your personal information being stolen. Please update Dashlane to its latest version.
