| Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit | d3dx9_34.dll installaion on 64bit system Hi, Bought new pc for xmas but my son is having an error come up when trying to run games. Seems to be quite a common one. d3dx9_34.dll missing, try reinstalling application. The tricky bit is that I am out of the country until the 15th Jan and therefore trying to help via phone and msgr. After research it has led me to Directx 9.c needing to be installed. My son did this but then got a conflict error with the the DirectX 10 that comes with Vista. After more searching I believe it is a case of installing the single d3dx9_34.dll file. My question is where do I extract and install it to. Have read it needs to go into Sys32 folder whilst others have said Syswow64 . Can someone please advice and please try to keep it simple as I need to explain i to my 12yr old. Running Vista Home premium 64 bit |

| Windows 7 RC x64 (7100) | Re: d3dx9_34.dll installaion on 64bit system Yup, just install the DirectX runtimes and you'll be ok. DirectX 10 and previous are different so you still need the latest Dx9 runtimes on Vista. And that, won't overwrite Dx10 at all. The web installer given will download all the files you need to be up-to-date. |

| Windows 7 RC x64 (7100) | Re: d3dx9_34.dll installaion on 64bit system If you downloaded the redistributable package, reboot and reinstall it. If you still have issues, use the DirectX installer from the application that complains (usually a game). |
