How to: enable directx features, texture Directdraw and APG

Original title: How do I activate my directx, Directdraw features and APG texture

I had this problem for about 3 months already, I have a windows visa and I'm a gamer, but something went wrong with my my Directdraw DirectX features and my texture of the APG are not working they say NOT AVAILABLE the only one that says enable is Direct 3D, I really need help solve this, I was wondering if I were to change my graphics card or maybe get a new update on my computer but I can't seem to fix, if someone had this problem and solved it please let me know what you were doing. Thank you

Hi MauricioJimenez

You can use the DirectX Diagnostic tool and check.

a. open DirectX Diagnostic tool by clicking Start, typing dxdiag in the search box, and then press ENTER.

b, click the view tab, under DirectX features, check to see whether DirectDraw, Direct3D, or AGP Texture acceleration is marked as unavailable.

If so, you might consider upgrading your hardware. You may also need to turn on graphics acceleration. Check out the links for more details on the same and check them off below if it helps-

You can also read the following article and check:

DirectDraw or Direct3D option is unavailable

Hope this information is useful.

  • Enable DirectX features: Vmware Fusion Mac 5

    I Accelare compatible 3D graphics card and downloaded the latest version of DirectX on my Windows 7 VM. When I go and look them in dxdiag my directx features are all listed as "not available". Is there something I'm missing here?

  • remote_registration_address - how to enable this feature (authorize only local databases to register)

    I am running 12.1.0.2 software database and infrastructure of grid on RHEL 5.

    remote_registration_address is disabled for the listener, listener_scan1, listener_scan2 and listener_scan3 (see below).

    valid_node_checking_registration is set to the subnet for earphone and turned off for listener_scan1, listener_scan2 and listener_scan3 (see below).

    The listener.ora is shown below, too.  I want to have the remote_registration_address automatically set by the oraagent process to use a HAIP address but I did not find anything in the documentation or My Oracle Support which tells me what I need to change to get the remote_address_registration parameter to be set by the oraagent process.  According to the documentation and the NOTE: 1914282.1 should not be set manually otherwise than on off.  Can someone tell me how to proceed?

    No guests nodes or subnets are defined either.

    Apparently the upgrade of 11.2.0.3 to 12.1.0.2 leaves in this situation (listeners node and scan all with remote_registration_address set to off) rather than the default value that you would get with a new installation 12.1 to have remote_registration_address value address HAIP (listeners both node and scan).  I finally unconfigured and reconfigured a cluster for remote_registration_address game to use an address HAIP.

  • How to enable the ReadyBoost feature?

    I would like to know how to enable the ReadyBoost feature.

    Hello

    Sorry, but you cannot use an internal hard drive for ReadyBoost. Indeed, an SSD can not use ReadyBoost.

    This feature can use a USB flash drive external as a hard drive cache to improve the disk read performance.

  • How to enable web services and search for printer email address

    I am trying to sign up for the monthly INK from HP.  As part of the application, they ask me a CODE.  However, I can't CODE because I am advised that my Web services are not enabled.  How to enable Web services so that I can complete my application?  Thanks for any help you can offer me.

    Hello

    What model of printer you have?

    Assuming your eprint-enabled printer, please follow the steps below to connect to web services and get your email from the printer.

    To find printers e-mail you need to enable web services from the front panel of the printer. It is normally a button on the front panel or an option in a menu.

    The printer will be connected to your WiFI network, and once the device is activated, it should display a page with a code composed of letters and numbers. It is the e-mail address of printers (when you add a @hpeprint.com to it).

    Once you have this, go ahead and configure a connected HP account and register the printer to your account. This will allow you to manage settings of the ePrint printer but also to track the history of the work.

  • How to display the hidden files and folders even if I've already enabled "Show hidden files, folders and drives" to "Advanced settings"?

    How to display the hidden files and folders even if I've already enabled "Show hidden files, folders and drives" to "Advanced settings"?

    After I enabled "Show hidden files, folders and drives" in 'Advanced settings', I can't yet see in the folder but I know there is a file in this program of WinRAR folder form as pictured below where I opened the case both at the same time.

    Hope you can help in this case...

    It would be possible that the file is marked as a system folder (which is just a check box in properties such as the hidden check box). So in your folder options, uncheck the "Hide protected operating system files" and see if it will be visible.

    Or another thing to try: remonter back a level, hold down SHIFT while you right-click the complete file and choose "Open command window here", then type DIR to see if the file is listed.
