How to ONLY install directx 3 is the use of video games. Without having to install the latest version of directx?
I have an old video game of cdrom for windows 95, 98, and a message asking me to click here and there to download directx 3A. I'm going to microsoft for this and only the latest version is available and this download does not work. Msg continues to be the same, even after a few tries.
Windows 7 already comes with the latest version of DirectX installed. Have you tried to install the game in compatibility mode?
Right click on the executable file / Installer-> properties and select the Compatibility tab. Click the check box before you run this program in compatibility mode for option, and then select Windows 95/98 from the drop-down list. then try to install the game using run as administrator.
If this does not work, I suggest buy you an old copy of Windows 95 or 98 license off ebay, download for free SUN Virtual Box and install Windows 95 and 98, and run your game in there.

How to upgrade Dev C alpha to the latest version
Hi guys
the latest OS update version available for Dev Alpha C is 10.1.0.1485. (https://developer.blackberry.com/blackberry10devalpha/devalpha_update.html)
However, actual devices can be updated to 10.1.0.4181. As far as I know dev devices alpha can only be updated through automatic charger provided here: https://developer.blackberry.com/blackberry10devalpha/devalpha_update.html
BlackBerry link or update on the device in the settings menu is not possible for alpha machines.
Does anyone know how to upgrade the alpha machines to the latest version of the OS that is available for actual devices?

I'm not able to use Firefox Hello. I get a message that it is not available in versions of Firefox ESR. How can I change my version of Firefox? I'm a home user and when I click on the link update my personal version of Firefox I get a message telling me I have the latest version. So, I'm stuck. I also used to have a link to beta "Hello" when it first came out (he was working at the time). This link is now expired. Can someone help me understand how to establish access to 'Hello '?
Hello will also work where you have configured firefox to run in permanent private browsing mode ("never remember history" in options > Privacy panel).

How always show the toolbar of the improvements in the latest version of Windows Media Player?
I made the switch from XP to Win7 64 bit and I would like to get WMP to behave like the previous version where the playback speed settings were still visible after the opening of WMP. I can't figure out how to activate this visibility option in the latest version. In the current version, I have to open the menu of upgrades, select the toolbar, and then rearrange on the screen to make it visible, and then set the speed.
Clues on how to solve this problem so that I see the toolbar automatically everytime I open the program? Thank you.
Hi usp.
I'm afraid to say that you shouldn't find this option open by default as it was in previous versions of Windows Media Player. And there is no work around to get its default opening because it's by the architecture of the software.
However there is an improvement in the same, instead of the default toolbar that we had previously we an arrow below the now playing tab where you can navigate in the development option.
Here's how:
1. start the playback of a file.
2. click on the arrow on the tab playing, point to enhancements, and then click play speed settings.
3. move the speed slider play on the speed at which you want to read the content, or click the slow, Normal or fast.
4. to select speeds between the speeds of game marked, in the enhancements pane, clear the cursor Snap box common speeds.
5. to hide the settings, click Close in the enhancements pane.For more information you can check the items below:

How will I know if I have the latest version of Mozilla Fire Fox?
deliciousfudge, that wouldn't work since Firefox 16.0 minor updates are not reflected in the useragent. The 32.0.3 Firefox will always show as 32.0 for example.

I just bought a MBP of 2013 (MacBookPro) renovated with OSX 10.9 (Mavericks) and want to update my Safari (version 7.0.5) the latest version of Safari. I tried to download Safari from Apple's site, but he said that I would also install the current OSX (10.11 El Capitan) as well. I want my MBP to stay on OSX 10.9 (because it is the last operating system that supports Adobe Creative Suite CS6).
Can someone advise me on where I can download ONLY the last Safari?
Thank you
Steve
You cannot run the last Safari on Mac OS 10.9.
It requires the latest Mac OS (10.11)
You can create a new partition and install the latest OS above and use it.
Then the Mavericks partition boot when you want to use Adobe Creative Suite.
