How I can run CueBall 2 of Jimmy White on Windows 7? It ran fine on previous versions of Windows.

Since my first PC, W95 running, I have a copy of Jimmy White CueBall 2, that has run on all versions of Windows.  Now that I'm on W7, however, with DirectX 11, the program will not work as it comes up with the error that DirectX does not support my version of Windows.

I checked the specifications of the program, and he says the minimum requirement is DirectX 6.1.

Is it possible that this can be corrected (Compatibility Wizard does nothing)?

original title: DirectX is not support W7 problem

Update.

I have been in communication with the support of Mastertronic, who were extremely helpful, and I have now everything in working order to simply reduce my screen, initially for the 1024 x 768 resolution, they suggested, but after some additional testing, I found that it worked up to & including a resolution of 1600 x 1050.

I noticed other users with similar problems, both with the same software, as well as with the other software retro version based on DirectX.  With a little luck, the same adjustments can solve your problems as well.

  • How I can run several same subvis in parallel?

    Hello world

    I'll call the sub - vi even several times in the same loop at the same time in a program. I would like that they run in parallel (not waiting for the first time at the end before you start the other). I know there is somewhere in Labview where I can change this setting by just checking / unchecking this option.

    If anyone knows where I can put this setting?

    Thank you

    User

    Hello

    It's funny that you mentioned remembering the part of tick and untick. Go to the properties of SubVIs VI by right clicking the VI icon on the upper right of the window, select run down to the bottom of the list and check on re-entrant execution. There you go... This will create clones of your Subvi whenever you use it. This example uses more memory. Keep this in mind.

    Kind regards

    When I try to install it it says 32 bit game not compatiable with 64-bit computer

    Hello stephbond69,

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    It is a game that was intended for Windows 95, so I don't know if you will be able to install it on a 64 bit Vista computer.

    However, you can try a few things.

    Re: Run 32-bit games on 64-bit Vista Ultimate

    Vista64 has a 32-bit compatibility layer to run 32-bit and 64-bit
    Apps/games. A few tips for the games under Vista in general, do not install games
    the default folder of Programs (X 86) as long as it is a protected and some
    older games cannot write their save games here, install the latest version of
    DirectX because Vista comes with Directx10 and a file is missing a few
    older games need (install the latest version of Directx will put this file)
    and in place) and some games need administrator
    Access (right click the exe of the game and select run as administrator). Lack of admin
    access may be your problem. I have HL2 on Vista64 and it works fine.

    You can load the creative cloud on two computers, as long as you use it on one at a time.

    Download and install it as you did on the first computer:

    Sign in to your Adobe account on the Adobe using your Adobe ID website, download the Cloud app and then download the software.

    You can download the installer for Creative Cloud from here:

  • How I can run XP and Win7 on separate hard drives and one PC?

    I had a HD crash all using XP Pro. I bought a new 1 TB hard drive. I got a free upgrade to Win7 with my PC. I proceeded to program my new hard drive with XP and made good.  When I bnotted I was asked if I wanted to go to Win7 or if I wanted to an earlier version. Worked pretty well.  2 OS - XP Pro and Win7 with their own hard drive.

    Last week, I discovered 2 very important programs have to use XP. I bought another hard drive; and now my life is quickly falling away.  I have worked with Dell throughout the day and have the first hard drive using XP but I'm having some difficulties to paginate in Win7.  He suggested, I use the function F2 to setup and change the sequence of boot but that takes a lot of extra time. And now my (currently (E) CR reader contains a description of hard disk)

    Can anyone provide a solution to this.
