    Most laptops have two power circuits separated when on AC, one to charge the battery and the other to run on the system board. It seems rather that the second circuit has failed, if the laptop power PIN is multi pole so it could be the power supply but it is rare.

    Check the label of the PSU manufacturers, if he makes mention of both voltages or two nominal currents, it is perhaps interesting to try a different PSU.

  • Games cannot be installed on the computer because the DirectX error

    Hi, I recently tried to install a game on my computer, and when I do it says ' DirectX Setup error: an internal error has occurred. "

    So I tried to reinstall DirectX, and he says he has the latest version installed on my computer

    Does anyone know why this happened and how to fix it?

    Is it only a game that shows this error?

    What game is it, and this graph you machine use?

    You use 32 or 64-bit Windows?

    If the error indicates the installation, Setup error may cover the setup.exe DirectX (executable)

    installation on the game disc. This can happen if the installation disc is bad, but...

    When the error occurs during installation, you can note that DirectX Setup has already been

    installed in the games installation folder.

    Open this repetoire and locate a subfolder that may have the DirectX Redist inside installation package.

    The package can be already unpacked. If so, the DXSETUP.exe should be among the .cab files.

    Find the DXSETUP.exe and run DX installation from there.

    Once finished, fingers crossed that the game will continue with the installation.

    I do not think that the error relates to the DX Windows files installed on your machine, but it can.

    Unfortunately most of the games these days this reinstall DX automatically from files on disk, more

    time unnecessarily, and this can sometimes corrupt the DX files.

    When a DX or the file is corrupt, you need to reinstall DirectX using the

    DirectX Redist installation package (June 2010).

    ( DirectX Web Installer does not overwrite existing files of DX. It installs only the "missing" DX files.)

    Hi all:

    I downloaded an extention, DMX Zone 960 Grid, and for some reason any it comes up with this message:

    This extension cannot be installed, it requires Dreamweaver version 12 or later.

    I'm on Dreamweaver CC 2015.2 - is that Dreamweaver 12 or more? I thought it was if not mistaken. My add page says it's installed, but in order to look into the area of DMX bar, but where the hell is that?

    Thanks for any help that anyone can give on this.

    Consider it a blessing. 960 grid is exceeded.  Nobody wants fixed width web pages.  You should build sensitive page layouts that adapt to different screen widths.  960 grid just cut more - too small for screens high resolution, too wide for mobile phones.   See start DW Starter pages.

    I'm trying to upgrade a macbook to El Capitan but I get this message from the app store: "this version of Mac OS x 10.11 cannot be installed on this computer."

    If I click on "Learn more" nothing happens. We just bought this macbook off ebay and it seems to have had a clean operating system installed and I just ran the update of the program, so everything is up to date.

    This is a Macbook 4.1, Intel Core 2 duo 2.4 ghz, 2 GB of memory. It is currently running 10.6.8.

    I searched the forums and online and see no reason why it won't even download the update... Any help would be appreciated!

  • DisplayLink Core Software cannot be installed on this operating system - Dynadock

    I have an other laptop manufacturers, and I want to use it in my home office, I bought a Toshiba Dynadock. I installed the software and, during this process, a message is displayed as follows:

    "DisplayLink Core Software cannot be installed on this operating system"

    I have Windows XP Professional, version 2002, service pack 1

    I checked my Services and DisplayLink is NOT present. All other elements of the Dynadock work very well (keyboard, mouse, camera, network etc.), but the screen is blank and I have to use scren laptop which goes against the whole object to have the Dynadock first!

    What can I do to load this software? Are there settings that I can change to allow the DisplayLink load?

    Any help welcome!

    Hello

    I'm not expert Dynadock but one thing is very interesting. According to your assignment, you use Windows XP Home SP1 edition. I wonder what will happen if you have installed SP2 with all latest updates.

    I don't know about you, but maybe you really need to install SP2. I don't see any other reason why this software cannot be installed.
