    Hello Will.Crisler,

    Thank you for posting.  You will need to download the DirectX 9 .0c and install it to the necessary file added to your system.  It will not replace DirectX 10, but you give the necessary file to make your game work.  I have included the link below to download.

    40GBs is the minimum; who will be vey quickly useless.

    Recovery partition would have been photographed by the manufacturer of the computer hard disk and you can't replicate that.

    You can use all of the hard disk space available to install Vista on.

  • Need help downloading for Mac 10.6.8 PE9 (an old mac)

    Hello! I had the HARDEST time trying to download PE9.  I lost him after the mac had malware and I had to take it to the Apple store. They said they had to wipe and reinstall everything.  I was told that I would lose all the apps.  But I did it.  PE9 lost.

    I talked to adobe support and various advisers accompanied me through downloading 4 times.  !! And it still doesn't work!  Maybe it's because I have this mac 10.6.8.

    Whenever I would try to open it and install it I got this message that "Installer failed to initialize download."   After that the last advise sent a link - one that I was REALLY HOPING would work this time!  It says the download for Mac OSX.  I don't have a mac OSX.

    So, if anyone knows how to get the PE9 for mac 10.6.8 (for once)! So I would be grat

  • Satellite A200-1DY - need added package for Vista 64-bit

    I can't find t value added package for 64-bit vista in any web update from Toshiba and I need because I installed the 64-bit version of Vista. It works fine but I need VAP and it seems that there is not.
    Why Toshiba don't have PPV for vista 64?

    Seems that the Toshiba VAP is not available for this model of laptop.
    Why? Who knows. ?:|

    But from my experience, Toshiba VAP contains some applications that control certain features of the laptop as FN keys for example.

    It seems that these applications have been outsourced and you can download it separately.
    For example this:
    _Flash cards support utility 1.48.0.3C_
    This tool is required to use the Toshiba Flash Cards (FN + F *)

  • Need driver win7 for Vista H233H monitor

    Hello, I just bought a new processor & Win and am having problems with my monitor H233H. During a cold start the monitor not acknowledge a connection with the new CPU until I turn off the power button on the monitor. When the monitor restarts - Acer appears - then it goes directly to my desktop - everything will be good until it lights up my screensaver. Then I have to turn off the monitor again.

    I see the driver site Acer that a Vista OS is listed for this monitor. Is there an another monitor driver that support Win7 I might have better luck with?

    Thank you!

    Solved the problem...

    Bought a new 27 "AOC montor. Pluged into the HDMI and things were Golden. I don't understand why Acer failed to write a new driver code for a monitor that was purchased in 2010 for Win 7?

    Makes me do not want to go back on the road to Acer.

    If Vista was preinstalled on your computer, look for a sticker with the product key on the case.

    If you purchased a retail version of Vista, you can look for it on the box Vista came in.
