• What does that mean? -This problem occurred because your graphics card does not support the required version of DirectX. This version of Windows requires a DirectX 9.0 compatible video card or newer.

  I tried viewing a presentation power point and got to page 2 and my computer crashed.  Thought on... what he did previously trying to display a PPP file, but I thought that it was not my computer to the actual file.  now I have my doubts and also this time an error message came that said... This problem occurred because your graphics card does not support the required version of DirectX. This version of Windows requires a DirectX 9.0 compatible video card or newer.  can someone tell me what I should do next?

  You left out which version of DirectX has been shown.

  As far as I know, your Intel 945GM should support DirectX 9 and because you have XP sp3, you must have at least DirectX 9 installed.

  I met the following, but it shouldn't apply to Powerpoint:

  Some such as the Intel 945 GM Intel video cards have a design limitation which may cause problems when you try to run the Source Engine games. 3D graphics kernel does not support transformation of material, light and the vertex shader to similar technologies, which is an important part of the pipeline of 3D acceleration. Instead, this functionality is emulated in software that can reduce the compatibility and performance with 3D games.

  I don't have a solution for you (assuming that DXDIAG, in fact, reports to have DirectX 9 or higher).  You can see if you install a new driver support, but if it were me, I would be first contact Acer technical support or ask your question in another forum as one of the following conditions:

  Intel graphics Forum: http://communities.intel.com/community/tech/graphics
  Forum PowerPoint: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/powerpoint (select the corresponding forum for your version of Powerpoint).  Include the results of DxDiag, including the version of DirectX.  If there is something unusual about the image that causes the crash, include this info as well.

  Normally, for notebook/laptop computer, it is better to get the drivers of the mfr of computer rather than the manufacturer of the device.

  Acer drivers for your computer are here: http://support.acer.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?tab=1&modelId=535 (you want the Intel VGA for XP driver)

  Intel has a newer driver: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Internet+Devices&ProductLine=Netbooks&ProductProduct=Mobile+Intel%C2%AE+945GM+Express+Chipset+Family

• Windows 7 on the new installation will not update...

  Any machine that I use, I have about 5-10 daily I install freshly, I can't get Microsoft Windows updates through the web. I end up having to add the machine with no updates to the domain and use WSUS for updates on the system from one day to the next in the case otherwise it can last 24/48 hours before actually start in Microsoft Windows to install on operating systems updates.

  The Machines are all Dell Optiplex, or series Dell Latitude...

  They range from 7020 9010 desktops and laptops Latitude of 5670...

  Minimum specifications are processors I5, SSD 250 GB and 8 GB of DDR3 memory minimal...

  So I know this isn't a problem with that...

  The Windowsupdate log shows nothing out of the norm...

  It didn't become a problem until version 10 of Windows was held... Now it is almost useless to attempt to run updates the Microsoft Site...

  Is there any solution for this?

  Or do I just have to call Microsoft?

  I actually found a solution to this today...

  Figure that I'd share...

  It requires 3rd party tools...

  But inside, you install a trial version of server 2k8R2 and install a trial version of WSUS. Unless you already have it running on the network... In this case, the production of WSUS works very well...

  Go here: http://download.wsusoffline.net/

  Download the WSUS Offline software (10.6.2 works with windows 7 x 86 and x 64)

  Install it...

  Run it...

  Configure it to pull updates from windows of your WSUS (Http://WSUSServer) Server

  Once you do that...

  Click on the updates that you want to make ISO from the server files...

  Click on check the downloaded updates

  Click on include Service packs

  Click on the box global update Windows 7 X 64

  Click Start

  The software will create an ISO of all approved windows 7 updates from your WSUS server...

  At worst it takes 10 minutes to create the ISO and an another 30 min to install on your desktop...

  You will need a DVD/R

  You will also get invited when you jump the disk in the Windows 7 machine, you want to click on the boxes that indicate automatically, restart and continue, then check the box to stop when you're finished...

  It took me about 30 minutes to run 200 + windows updates, but I've included the Office updates in my ISO as file... so it would probably take less most of the machines on...

• Floppy drive and CD players do not Up on my computer in Windows Explorer

  He is a teacher of Windows 7 machine.  Under computer, in Windows Explorer, show my two hard drives; but my floppy drive and CD discs do not show.  Currently, none of the disks has a disc inserted.

  However, if I click on computer, they all appear in the right pane on the devices with removable storage section.  If I double-click on any of the readers, it tells me to insert a disc, so I guess they are recognized.

  Under Tools, Folder Options, view, the option hide readers empty in the computer folder is disabled, so presumably, this isn't the problem.  Curiously, if I put a CD in one of the two drives and a floppy drive in the floppy drive, the CD come listed under the computer however, the floppy drive is still missing!

  How can I get the missing CD and floppy drive will appear under computer all the time, the inserted media or not?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thank you!

  I know this is a very late response, but I had the same problem recently until I went into 'Organize' > "Folder and Search Options" and under the general tab in the "Navigation Pane" section, I checked the option titled 'Show all files' (this option for some reason any seemed to be solely responsible to hide my floppy drive and CD-ROM/DVD-ROM readers in only the Navigation pane just as you knew) for my own peace of mind I have also checked the option "Automatically extend to the current folder" so that the navigation pane would show the folder in which I was currently reviewing (as it did in Windows XP).

  I hope this helps someone else who has this problem and falls on this thread.

• I can't use windows Explorer or the network drive mapping to access my NAS drive more.

  original title: strange NAS problem

  Hi everyone I can't seem to fix this strange problem.

  I can't use windows Explorer or the network drive mapping to access my NAS drive more.
  I am running windows 7 Professional 32-bit on my PC, and until about a week ago she accessed from my PC very well.

  The location could not be reached and have not been able to run since said today that I went to update it and the drive mapped. I'm at my wits end.

  Here is some info.

  I can access to other computers and devices on my network.

  I can access the internet.
  I have a windows XP PC in the House who can always connect to my fine NAS drive (even if it's not mine).
  I PING the NAS drive.
  The NAS drive will do the same if connected via cable or by wireless.

  UPDATE: after the implementation of a shared folder on a Windows XP computer on the same network I am also unable to acsess the part of my PC. So I can assume that I can't browse all share folders or NAS drives on my local network.

  Help, please.

  Thanks for the help, but I fixed my problem

  Here's what I did in case anyone wants to know.

  I went into Device Manager and went to network adapters.
  I then expanded this section and under view changed to display hidden items.
  Several hundred elements appears (for most 6to4 adapters) and I deleted all the.
  Then click scan for new hardware.
  And... everything works again! YAY!

• Can not register opimize: when I start computer, a window opens opimize the registry failed

  When I start computer a window opens opimize the registry failed

  Hi Harry,.

  Looks like you have some program registry installed and programmed to run at startup, which does not work.  I suggest we identify and remove the boot and then remove it totally from the system (uninstall).  Registry modification programs are generally risky, rarely do much good, can cause great harm and are not really necessary as Windows does a good job of managing the registry on its own.

  Try a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.  If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem.   Follow the procedures described in the article.  Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall.  Once don't forget to reset your operating system to normal status, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work.

  Start in safe mode with network and see if the problem is here.  A result allows us to narrow down the search for the cause.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• List of copy of the files from Windows Explorer in the form of text in an application...

  Windows will always add something, or a menu item to copy a list of files in Windows Explorer in the form of text in an application?  I would like to run a DOS command (dir c: /s > c - example.txt) as I did years ago, but as I'm sure your aware, constantly been availible for years and your virtualization Windows MS-DOS command line is incompatible with my new computer... All solutions would be grately appreciated.

  Thank you
  Dave

  Hi Dave,.

  I have good news for you:

  There are two ways to do what you want:

  The first is the simplest and is already in Windows 7 (and Vista by the way):

  1. highlight one or more files that you want to know the way in Explorer.
  2. press and hold the SHIFT keyand right-click on one of the highlighted files.
  3. when the popup menu appears, click the entry in the path of the copy which appeared as if by magic, because you're now the SHIFT key.

  A slightly better method, IMO, but it takes a little extra work is to add an extension to the send menu to allow you to right-click on one or more files and choose send to-> Clipboard (as name).  This somehow me seems more practical, because I'm used to the way in which the rear PowerToys when.  Such an extension, which also adds a nice Panel to help you manage the menu send to, is a neat package small freeware called send to toys, by Gabriele Ponti, which can be downloaded here: http://www.gabrieleponti.com/software/index.html#sendtotoys

  A nice feature of the program send to toys, is that you can even have it put quotes around any path to file that contains white space.  Practice indeed!

  I hope this helps!

  P.S., A command line similar to BACK tool is still (and always has been) available.  On the start menu, select: Start -> all programs -> Accessories -> command prompt.  Or you can just run: CMD.exe

• As that I start my computer I get the error message "Rundll: error loading C:\windows\idoroyuyevev.dll the specified module could not be found." How should I do?

  Original title: Rundll error help

  As that I start my computer I get the error message "Rundll: error loading C:\windows\idoroyuyevev.dll the specified module could not be found." -What it means and how to fix it?

  It is sometimes easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem by simply deleting the startup message.

  I would also not recommend you start digging in the registry to try to find the startup item and remove it unless you have a backup of your system or at least a backup of your registry, because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.

  These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom if they not even work at all, but they can't actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.  You don't need to try ideas that might work, you must do something that will always work all the time.

  Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.

  There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.  If you do not have a good explanation for the name of the file in a Google search, the chances are good that your system is currently or has been infected by malware.
  A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
  It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
  Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
  So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.

  You must be sure to solve the problem and not just fix the symptom of the problem by simply relieving your message - system is not a fix (there is a difference).

  If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
  If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
  Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry
  . There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
  Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
  http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html
  You can also use the Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
  Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
  When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information.  You are really interested only a few sections.
  The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
  Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
  If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
  You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
  Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove.  If you are not sure what it is, you can just turn it off, restart and if the problem is resolved and things are functioning normally and everything works fine, then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
  Given that your system has or has had an infection, follow up with this:
  Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.

• Problem with Windows Explorer and the recorded files

  When I save files from the internet and then open the folder with Windows Explorer in the backed up files, I find that WE consider not save them on my hard drive "change" more. I know it's strange, but I tend to retain files roughly in the order that I saved them, rather than by the name of the file or anything else. So now to manually change the files in a certain way, then save them to get them organized as I want. Of course, this can become very painful and long if I have a lot of files to organize this way. My question is: How can I get Windows to consider saving a file on my HDD as change? I use Firefox and updated recently, which may be the cause of the problem.

  Hi Flingle,

  Were you able to save and access files correctly before you update Firefox?

  You can create a new folder & try to download the file inside of Internet Explorer & check if the problem persists.

  Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.
