DirectX Issues - Can Someone Help?

[zzapp]

Thanks for all your help with this. I apologize for being so computer illiterate about this.

Just to make sure I understand, I can have multiple versions of directx on my PC? What do you mean by 'directx9c runtime'?

Volt - I'm unable to get to the website with the URL you posted.

Again, my apologies on being so dumb about this. Regards.

It's no problem. You came here cuz you needed advice and I don't mind throwing out my geek for anyone that needs it. AND for the record, I'm surprised we don't have more posts like these. Most consumers aren't aware of these technical things. Keep us updated =)

Well, hope I did this right. I tried to run this from your 2nd URL, Volta. It gave me the option to run it, but after I agreed to the license, nothing appeared to happen - it just immediately came back with finished. So I went to the Microsoft website, after googling dxwebsetup.exe, and ran the program. The description is 'The Microsoft DirectX® End-User Runtime provides updates to 9.0c and previous versions of DirectX — the core Windows® technology that drives high-speed multimedia and games on the PC.' Not a big dowload, only 286 KB. Unless you can see where I did something wrong, thanks again for your help.

Edit Note: This seems to have worked. At least I could run the benchmark program. Hopefully, everything else is fine lol
