Pls explain howto get the right DX
Pflueger
but cannot get more than a blurry image on my PC ( late '90s HP Pavillion
with XP SP2) so I called ESPN Helpline -- was told I needed to contact HP
about getting DirectX 7 or 9.
Today I checked "dxdiag" and it said I needed to update something (I am
posting a few lines below). From Google I got the MS DirectX page and tried
to update from there , resulting in an error stating I need to see
DXError.log or DirectX.log in my Windows folder, neither of which exists.
That is about as far as I can go I guess until I understand how to go about
getting what I need from HP, i.e. is it a download, or...? I don't know
beans about DirectX but can follow instructions very well. Thanks. pflu
DxDiag Notes:
------------
DirectX Files Tab: The file qasf.dll is an old version, which could cause
problems. You should reinstall DirectX to get the latest version.
Display Tab 1: Hardware-accelerated Direct3D 9 is not available
because the display driver does not support it. You may be able to get a
newer driver from the hardware manufacturer.
Sound Tab 1: No problems found.
Sound Tab 2: No problems found.
Music Tab: No problems found.
Input Tab: No problems found.
Network Tab: No problems found.
