I can't run any games that use DirectX

Similar Questions

• When I try to run a game that uses DirectX, it gives no error message or anything it either, then closes.

  When I try to run Black Ops II I double-click the icon and open the Task Manager to verify that the process is running. I see that it is running. But 30 seconds later, the process stops. Then I ran DxDiag and he says I'm under DirectX 11. However when I look for dxcpl.exe in the System32 folder, it isn't here. That's what I think, it is the origin of the problem. Please help me find a way to fix the missing DirectX file!

  Data sheet:

  OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit SP1

  Processor: Intel Core i5 CPU M 460 @2. 53 GHz

  RAM: 6.00 GB (5.87 usable)

  Dell Inspiron N5010

  I thought that the question was already answered-

  "dxcpl.exe (DirectX Control Panel) is not a default Windows file. I think that it only would be present when

  DirectX SDK developer tools are installed. "

  Therefore, there is no point in having a dxcpl.exe. It is not relevant to the running of the games.

  It is used by software developers who are coding with C++, and because you have not

  the software is installed, this file is not in System32.

• Can I run a game that has been installed in a Windows version of 32-bit with a 64-bit OS?

  That's the question, please answer me.

  Very likely... :)

  Most of the games are very good with few 76. The exceptions are-

  Very old games of 16 bits (pre 2000) often have 16-bit setup programs that do not work on 64-bit.

  They can often be installed on a 32-bit and copied computer at work 64-bit and again.

  Some of the most popular games of old have new installers that are compatible with 64-bit available on fan sites.

  It is not the OS that is causing the problem with a lot of games. This is the DRM (copy protection) not not grateful

  an OS 64-bit as legitimate.
  ' 04-'06 are bad years of DRM. The older Starforce , Tages DRM are the most problematic.

  Two associated DRM issues are - unsigned drivers (Win7 64-bit not only) or - the DRM is not compatible with 64 bit.

  There are several fixes that will get most of the running games-

  -Floors has a 64 bit update available on their Web site that works for The Witcher (possibly others).
  -When a game cannot be executed because of the more zealous DRM it can very often be fixed with a 'noCD' patch

  These can come from a couple of web sites (Mega Games), but some games do not have a noCD patch available.

  Then, there are a few games that don't work on Win7 64 bit. Some 16-bit and BACK according to need of games

  Hi shangshen,

  If you subscribe to subscription Creative Cloud, then open the application of creative Office Cloud > go to the Apps section > search for Photoshop, if its installed, then you can open it from there and if it's not, then just install it.

  Otherwise, you can also check under application for application to install everything.

• am wanting to run an older game that uses x 86(32 bit) or x 64 (64-bit). is there a way to get windows 7 to run it. is there a download available?

  as stated above, I want to find a patch or update to run this game. is there one. ?

  What game it maybe a patch but how can say us without knowing the game?

  Have you tried Windows 7 compatibility mode to see if that helps? Try to run as a version of windows that your program runs with i.e. WXP sp3 maybe? If this does not help, try marking for "run as Administrator" as well and have a look at some of the other options it offers that they can help.

  If it still doesn't work try to install the game in compatibility mode (that is, run the installer in compatibility mode) as well as to run the game in compatibility mode.

  Is your program listed in recent compatibility, in the affirmative, as who says?

  Have you looked on the support site for the game (his publishers or factory, etc.), to see if they offer a hotfix or Windows 7 tips. Some do it.

  I upgraded my pc w7 w8 PC. I bought a game app of the windows store. Can I run this app on my other pc w7 in my house? What about the PC I have XP?

  Hello

  I understand that you would like to know if the app downloaded from Windows Store game runs on Windows 7, or Windows XP.

  The store is related to Windows 8 PC. If you wanted to play the game on another PC it will have Windows 8 on it and you will need to connect to this computer by using the Microsoft Account that was used to purchase the game.

  Hello

  Welcome.

  To resolve this problem, you must install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility as administrator. To do this, right click on the Setup file (msicuu2.exe) and choose Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  All the best!

• I can not run any .bat and cannot open the cmd prompt

  I can't run the files .bat and most horrible thing I've ever met is a missing cmd.exe. It's starts with me trying to play Assault Cube, which must run on a .bat instead of .exe like other games. But whenever I try to open a batch file, it keeps gives an error "Windowscannot find"file to the .bat file (directory)". Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again. "Each. Time.

  So, as everyone will do, they search the Internet. I would like to do is short.
  A virus? No, my laptop is clean after scanning with Malwarebytes. You have to open as an Admin? Yes, but I got an error saying "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action." Please install a program or, if such is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel'.» Tried to do? Well I think that it is impossible for the command prompt to be included in the default values list. I tried open the command prompt by typing "cmd" and pressing on enter the Start Menu? So many times I've tried, but it's endless. Whenever I do this, the command prompt displays upward and 0.5 seconds later, it's farm/accidents/output by itself. Now 0.1 second.
  So, I thought on this subject and I typed in the start 'Command Prompt' Menu. When I see the icon, it's like the path or the file is missing of some sort. So I click right on the top that says "Command Prompt" and click on the option "open the file location, which made me feel weird as there should be no such thing as an option for a file that is part of the folder system32." I was directed to ' C:\Users\Acer\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories'.
  I found a shortcut to the command prompt, but I checked the file in "position to open the file", the location of the file is not displayed (opens in a new window as every time it is done). Also the guest who said when every time the .exe is missing is not indicated where we gave options to remove the .lnk. But it shows same either. If the file should be there, but it seems that the cmd is absent when I searched in system32.
  So, I'm at the blunt end to try to do things and to rely on some other cmd work and one question remains to ask with your opinion, are there links to download Microsoft cmd or is it even safe to use the another cmd PCs or by downloading?
