This DirectX crap is driving me insane!
I mean, I actually managed to find a link that you could save on a disc and install it later, but now I've got new problems, of course. :rolleyes2
This is how things have progressed:
1. I save a redist of DirectX onto a CD-R, and move it over to my own computer.
2. I extract it, or at least I think I do, and LOTS of folders with names such as "JUN2005_directx" or something come up.
3. One of them actually has a computer icon, and is called DXSETUP.
4. I click it. It starts downloading. Yay!
5. It STOPS downloading, because "it couldn't find a necessary file for installation".
6. I try putting the emulator and all the ROM:s on the computer, because they might be the "necessary files".
They are not.
Simple question:
what the hell is this "necessary file" thingy, anyway?
A Plug-In?
Some weird program?
HELP!
