Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Windows 7 does not have all the Directx 9 files on it.

You have to install them all to get a lot of programs that use D3D to work.

How do I install them, then? It gave me a shitton of winrar folders. lol

Open one of the winrar folders (either the top of the bottom forget which it is) and there should be an exe file to install them.

no means no, why doesnt anyone get that lol D:

Were you talking to my sister chuuu? She doesn't understand the concept of no either.

because Im naggy!

no i wasnt but seems lots of people dont like no for an answer :P

No means yes. Get lost means take me I'm yours. Disney told it to me.

I found an .exe but it's not launching at all. :| I extracted them to a folder from my downloads folder and still nothing.

lolserj ! gimme more yoruichi pics

only sometimes. . .

nagger :o

shouldn't need to extract them. just open 1 of the rars and use the exe. going to download it and check

Ok for the site I linked, the initial exe file extracts everything to where you tell it. from there use DXSETUP to install. It's working fine for me~

Mmmkay. I'm not seeing any DXsetup. I'm seeing: infinst.exe in a bunch of folders.

Edit: If you mean the actual installer, everytime I run that, it tells me my version 11 is better and it won't bother installing ***.

The file you downloaded off that site was called Directx_Jun2010_redist.exe right? If so make a new folder, extract the contents of that EXE to the folder. Then you should find your setup.

Alright, did that and installed it. Assuming I have to restart? Or what next? (Direct3D still not working)

What video card are you using?

If you haven't already grab the latest drivers. Not what came on the disk or what W7 downloaded for it.

After installing the Vcard drivers reboot and all should work.

AMD Radeon HD 7770 - 1GB

Well, I downloaded Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. How do I install the latest drivers? (Sorry, my laptop was done for me with everything already installed. D:)

http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx Should be that. Catalyst Software Suite

Not sure though as I don't use Radeon.

After you install that you'll have all the options to overclock your card and whatnot too. Reboot after you get it installed.


I need teh sleeps though. Goodluck. If you get stuck on something send me a PM and I'll check it out when i wake up.

Alright, thanks. Nn. Thanks for the help.

So cool *_*

*** yeah, ily Dread.

i still havent tried pinks hot dogs. then again each time i try the line is super long :\

Suddenly I wish I had a telescope.

Where's my kilt?

Introducing the Arte hour. A full hour bringing you tasteful music and beautiful, relaxing scenery. Right here at 93.7 FFXIAH.

Following the Arte hour, get ready for another installment of:

All yours Slip.

Well today we're going to make quesadillas. So first thing's first let's gather up all our ingredients, we'll need olive oil, 1-2 chicken breasts, 1/2 an onion sliced thin, fajita seasoning (you can make your own or buy those packets, doesn't matter) 2/3 cup water, grated cheese (cheddar and monterrey jack work well, 50/50 ratio is okay) and tortillas.. I prefer to make my own tortillas.

30 mins ahead or so mix the water and the fajita seasoning in a large bowl, then cover the chicken in the mix and let it marinate.

Okay so first in an oven proof skillet we're going to put in a tablespoon of olive oil and heat it up, then we're going to saute the onions just until they start to change color from white to translucent, about 1 minute. Once they're done, push them to the outside of the pan. Now sear one side of the chicken (reserving the seasoning mix in the bowl) for a couple of minutes, then turn, let cook 2 more mins, pour in the seasoning mix, cover and stick in 375 degree oven for about 45 minutes.

Put a fine mesh strainer in a bowl and remove chicken from oven. Place chicken on cutting board and let rest for 5-10 minutes, pour the onion and juice through the strainer, saving both. Slice chicken thin and put in a bowl, dump in the onion and add a tablespoon or so of the liquid, mix well. If you want the meat to have a a stronger flavor, add more of the liquid.

Now Put a skillet over medium-high heat, take a tortilla, put down a thin layer of cheese on one half of the tortilla, put a tablespoon or so of meat over the cheese, then top off with more cheese, fold in half and press it together for a second. Place tortilla in hot frying pan and place a heavy sauce pan or cast iron skillet over the top, cook for about 30-45 seconds, flip and repeat.

Tune in next time for spaghetti and meatball pizza.
