3DMark 2001 won't run

Something funny. 3DMark 2001 won't run on my computer. It gives me an error message saying it needs DirectX 8.1 or higher to run, but i have DirectX 9 installed on my machine. I am able to run 3DMark 03 with no problems (with a score of 3660.. is this bad?)
Anyone know any quirky things with 3DMark 2001 that would make it not able to run?

thanks pterhune.
btw.
my 3DMark 03 score is 3660.
my Aquamark score was about 28,800.
are these scores a little low for my system? I know the 3DMark 03 one surely must be. I'm wondering what I can do to get my scores up a little bit. I still am getting those stuttering frames in final fantasy XI sometimes. I figure if I could optimize some things I might increase my benchmark scores, and also eliminate the frame stuttering.

You should probably just download the trial version of pse 12 and see if you can live with it.
Download a free trial or buy Adobe products | Adobe downloads
That being said, have you tried to install pse 1 on your computer?
How much free space is on your hard drive?
Do you have Internet Explorer 10 or 11?
Pse 1 can run on windows 7 x64, provided certain conditions are met.

Extremely dissapointing 3DMark 2001 score

I just built my dream system consisting of a 3ghz 800fsb P4, 875P-Neo LSR, and 512x2 Kingston DDR400 CL2.5. I am running a MSI GF4ti 4200 VTD 8X video card. So I get everything up and running, and I bench it with 3DMark 2001 se to start... and the final score was 9450 marks ;( with no antialiasing or anisotropic filtering at a 1024 by 768 resolution/85hz refresh rate. Even when I overclock my video card to ti4400 speeds I still can't break the 10,000 mark. This is the second system I have built and the last was a 1.3 t-bird system. I am only getting about 1200 marks higher than my old 1.3 athlon system. Am I missing something here? From what I have seen on the various forums and published benchmarks I should be getting in the 12-13,000 range easy at stock speeds. What do you guys think could be the inhibiting factors? I don't know much about tweaking, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I also read that for stock un-overclocked systems, the Neo mobo prefers CL 3 ram instead of CL 2.5 ram, could this cause that much of a decrease in performance? Sorry for such helpless newbie questions, but I guess that is what I am . Just to reiterate, I am not looking to overclock at this point, I just want everything to run optimum at stock settings.

Ok problem solved. I was reading the various other threads when I came across this one http://www.msi.com.tw/program/service/forum/index.php?threadid=20708&boardid=10&styleid=1&sid=f95e8c77bfed03ad575ae34495cf2b30 After reading this I remembered that I was missing a driver for a similar component, the SM bus controller, what ever that is. My mobo manual didnt have anything written about it that I could see. I new this was an issue that needed to be taken care of but figured a fresh installation of windows would fix that too. Then after the fresh install and the dissapointing scores again I checked my device manager, and sure enough it was an unknown device that needed a driver. So I checked for a driver in the Win XP cd, and then the Neo-LSR cd, and it kept saying, "No suitable drivers could be found". Then I remembered that it was doing this crap with the onboard LAN driver also. So, I took the cd out closed the intall wizard, and put the mobo cd back in and let the disc detector bring up the interface for the drivers and utilities, and sure enough in the driver section of the cd, there was the INF files I needed. I feel like an idiot X( . I just didn't know what it was. Anyway, long story short I am benching around 12,700 and with the video card conservatively oc'd to 275/550 I am hitting 13,500 pts. Thats why I paid to upgrade! Now I just need a beefier video card. Thanx too all for the suggestions

K7n2 delta beeps during 3dmark 2001 se 330 benchmark

hi,
i was just wondering about what happened with my k7n2 delta ilsr. i tried to run the 3dmark 2001 se 330 benchmark. i selected all the tests. everthing works fine until the part where the "nature" test comes. the graphics began to skip a lot and there are short beeps that sound at random points during the test. the beeps only sound during the nature test and the succeding tests...
my psu is a 475 watt psu. all my voltage levels are fine under bios and are within 3% (all of them). my video card is a ti4200 128mb (4x) variety. i already turned fast write off, video bios cache off, 8x off, and the aperture size is 128.
my os is windows xp pro sp1. all my drivers are updated using live update utility including the bios. my graphics card driver is also an updated one...
i already tried doing things under a single channel mode and dual channel mode i still get the same results.
did anyone have any experience like this? please help me... thanks

CS3 installs but won't run

Ok - not sure if this goes in this section or not.. but it's a technical question.
My b/f bought me a Dell Laptop last week. It has the recommended minimum of everything adobe says it needs for photoshop CS3 (see below for 1721 specs)
When I installed it on the laptop - it was slow, but said it installed. But when I go to open up Photoshop, it opens the screen - and then just hangs. After about 5 minutes it says not responding and I close it. Any of the other programs that came with won't even get that far. I click on them and it gives the little "thinking" circle (as I call it.. lol) and then nothing.
I have read that CS3 has issues with Vista - but their site says the home premium should work. I've also read about 64 bit issues.. but the OS is 32 bit - so it's capable of running 32bit systems... I guess.
I called adobe yesterday after installing and reinstalling CS3 15+ times... with the same issue. I was on the phone for about 2 hours with them. Basically - they have NO CLUE what it would be since it installs fine and opens with no error messages. I checked the log files and there is nothing in there I see that says any kind of error.
I have disable windows defender, uninstalled McAfee and google desktop (all are known to cause issues with CS3), I have ALL non MS startup services turned off.. I have turned off the MS users control.. all suggested by the adobe tech.
I have installed using the run as administrator. Nothing. Created a new admin account and installed on that user and opened on reg admin account. Nothing. (again typical things that correct cs3 install issues)
The last thing the guy said was that it might be a video issue. I checked and there aren't any issues mentioned and no driver updates listed.
We tryed installing this on my b/f's laptop. He bought the exact one I have (except his is red.. mine blue.. lol) and it does the EXACT same thing...
So today we called dell. they say it's a software issue and won't answer any questions for free. Apparently only hardware support is free... But they won't accept this is a hardware conflict with the software..
errrrr
Anybody have any clues on this?

Rob - thanks for taking a stab at this.
I have tried installing from the DVD and also from the zip file. the zip file was extracted to the hard drive brfore I ran it - and I ran it as administrator.
And when it stalls - it gives the (NOT RESPONDING) tag on the window - which usually means that even if I leave it (and I have for up to 20 minutes) - still nothing.
Here's the update from my dealings with DEll today...
Dell tech support guy told me that it was a know issue that CS3 WON'T run on Vista and that Adobe is working the issue
Told them that I knew others that were running it on Vista and it worked fine. They had no answer.
Then I waited for the Technical support manger to call. This is after expressing my displeasure to the technical supervisor about them trying to pawn this issue off on anyone else but themselves. Why can't they go grab a 1721 off the shelf and replicate the issue and try to figure it out from there?!?!?!
I used to work on a network helpdesk.. if I tried to pull that crap answer without trying to replicate the issue and AT LEAST try to find an answer.. I wouldn't have lasted very long at all!!!!
The Tech manager told me to call customer support and ask for an OS swap (from vista to XP) because they don't know what the problem is and so it muct be a Vista compatibility issue
I call customer support. They say that they no longer will give out XP since it is a step backwards. And to install XP on the machine ourselves (even a liscensed copy) would void the warranty. They suggest I talk to sales about swapping the laptop out with a "more compatible" one. Which isn't a totally bad idea since I really do think it is an AMD/ATI conflict.
They transfer me to Sales.. ohh - you used the Employee Purchase program.. you need to talk to them.. and they transfer me.
The EPP people tell me.. ohhhh you didn't actually go through us since you bought it off the Dell Outlet store. So they transfer me.
The dell outlet store says they will be more than happy to swap me out to an Intel based machine.
Only catch is the Intels are more expensive. They don't have any for the price we paid for the amd's. Fot about $40 more I can get one with a slower processer, a gig less ram, no dvd writer, but with a 160gb hd. To get compatible to mine - would be about $150 more.
And they only have silver in the low end, and black or brown in the higher. Not that I really give a s@!t what the color is.. but it brings up the main reason I am sooo pissed abput all of this....
Why should I have to pay more money, settle on doing without option/features want/need.. just because THEY don't want to take the time to figure out what the real issue is?!?!?! Why isn't it them doing these calls and doing all this troubleshooting.. Why am I being peanilzed for THEM not wanting to do their jobs....
Told the B/F that I am done with Dell. That I don't want the laptop anymore and I don't want any other one from them. He says he'll pay the extra and get me the other one.. but that isn't the point....
Not sure what my next move is.

How do I install the FM10 licensing fix when Adobe Update Installer won't run?

Adobe Update Installer won't run so can't install FM10 licensing fix
This question is Not Answered.(Mark as assumed answered)
Aug 9, 2013 12:09 PM
Tags (edit): none (add)
Because FM10 began crashing with "fatal" errors whenever I tried to generate a TOC for a small (65 page) book, I researched workarounds and none of them worked. Now that I have delivered a crippled deliverable via Acrobat manipulations, I would like to fix FM. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, got some updates, and then received the "licensing fix" error that popped up in January. I'm wondering why this fix was included not in the updates. That said, the licensing fix package, first, would not unzip so I downloaded it again. I unzipped it but I got a message that Adobe Updater Installer could not run and after several clicks I found that file. I reinstalled Adoble Update Installer but it still does not run.
I am running Windows XP and have TCS 3.5.I uninstalled FM and RH but not Acrobat, Captivate, or Photoshop.
So, now what? Listen to my supervisor who says never use FM again?
P.S. Why do I have to enter a title for my question and then do it again when this page opens??

Give Adobe Support a call or contact the TCS team at [email protected] - something in your environment is causing the installer to fail (I'd guess).

Action steps that won't run correctly in PSE 7/8/9 (but did in 4 and 6)

I have a wonderful action that was written to work in PSE 3/4/6. It won't run in PSE 7/8/9. After fooling around for a while, I think I understand why. Adobe changed the way Adjustment Layers are handled. In earlier versions of Photoshop and Elements, Adjustment Layers threw up a modal dialog box. That changed so that Adjustment Layers now appear in the Palette Bin as a palette.
Here a sample of some of the action steps that won't work correctly:
Make adjustment layer
Using: adjustment layer
Type: levels
Set Selection
To: none
Set current layer
To: layer
Name: “Adjustment 1”
Set current layer
To: layer
Mode: luminosity
Stop
Message: “Move gray slider left”
With Continue
Set current adjustment layer
To: levels
In earlier versions of PS and PSE, the way these steps would work is that a new adjustment layer would be created, the dialog box giving the instruction would open, it would be dismissed by clicking "Continue," and then the "Set current adjustment layer to: Levels" would generate a model adjustment layer dialog box would open up which would let one make the adjustment.
In newer versions, since Adjustment Layers are handled in the Palette Bin, after dismissing the instructions, the action doesn't stop to allow the user to make change the sliders on the adjustment layer.
The action runs perfectly in CS4 and CS5 and throws up the levels adjustment modal box as it did in PSE 4 and PSE 6, but the action doesn't throw the modal box in PSE 7/8/9
Does anyone know of a way to alter the action steps to allow the action to stop to allow the adjustment and then to resume again?

Adding a new levels adjustment layer on top of the Midtone contrast layer
should work, just use a clipping mask to restrict the adjustments to the
areas of the levels adjustment layer below. The histogram will be different, but
actually testing the action is really the only way to know if that makes any difference.
Replacing the levels adjustment layer is another option, though it requires a few more steps.
The following assumes when the action gets to this point,
the Midtone contrast adjustment layer is the active (selected) layer.
To record this part of the action:
1. Duplicate current channel (in the channels panel. drag the Midtone contrast mask
    down to the Create new channel icon at the bottom of the channels panel)
2. Ctrl+click on the newly created channel (Midtone contrast mask copy)
    This loads the selection of that channel.
3. Drag the new channel (midtone contrast mask copy) to the trash icon at the bottom
   of the channels panel.
4. Back in the layers panel, delete the Midtone Contrast adjustment layer.
5. Go to Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Levels
    This creates a new levels adjustment layer using the selection loaded from
    the duplicated channel and opens the levels dialog.
To load the RGB (composite) as a selection, Ctrl+click on the rgb in the channels panel
and the same is true for the red, green and blue channels.
With layer masks, elements doesn't seem to want to load them as selections in actions,
so that's the reason for the action steps above.

CS2 won't run

CS2 won't run, says activation code no longer usable. Been running win7 on this system 3 years. Adobe says it won't activate in win7. Well, it did, and ran just fine. what's up?

I assume when you say "Adobe says it won't activate in win7" that you talked to customer support....
A drive change could trigger the need for reactivation. Did you tell them that you're running from a mirrored drive?
It sounds to me that they're being aggressive about trying to get you to upgrade when they should still be supporting you with active maintenance of their activation database.
But unfortunately if you can't get them to adjust their database you're out of luck.

I have a Windows 2003 Server 64-Bit, and when I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 now it won't run, it keeps saying to restart to complete the installation, but I've restarted theserver 4 times, and I still can't use it.

I ended up putting it in DFU mode. It's kinda hard to tell it was in DFU mode because nothing showed on the screen, it was just black, but the sounds from the computer helped to tell me it was connected.
Itunes still didn't recognize the device for whatever reason.
So I used redsn0w. I don't know if I can say that on these forums, but considering itunes was worthless at this point I am going to give credit where credit is due.
Now I am giving itunes a second chance to upgrade to 5.1, if it doesn't work, well, back to redsnow and maybe I will even jailbreak it this time rather than just using the fecovery fix found under extras.

How do I roll-back to the previous version of Firefox? An auto update occurred and now one of the programs used at the office (ACT! v6.0 SwiftMail) won't run with the browser.

The office I work in uses a very old version of ACT!, an accounting package. This package has a component called SwiftPage, an antiquated email system that enables us to email from the ACT DB. SwiftPage runs via the web browser.
Firefox just did an auto update (that I will have to find out how to turn off) and now SwiftPage won't run as it is not compatible.
Can I "roll-back" my version of Firefox or do I have to uninstall and try to re-install an older version?
HELP!

Try loading and using the add-on from this link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/
Many add-ons do in fact work if you force them to run. The procedure to roll-back is given in this article: [[installing previous versions of firefox]]
Unfortunately the official Firefox policy is that you downgrade to 3.6 which is supported for a while longer, and not the now unsupported Firefox 4. If after installing and running the ''add-on compatibility reporter'' you still have problems there are ways around the official policy.
I think it is absurd that Firefox 4 may be used by tens of millions of users one day and a few days later those that upgrade to Firefox 5 should be not only told not to use a now unsupported browser, if they need to revert due to problems, but are actually obstructed in attempts to do so.

I had the same problem on CentOS 6.2 x86_64, albeit not on EC2. It seems that the installer creates a symlink to the i686 libpcap (libcap.so.1 -> /lib/libcap.so.2) and fmsedge won't run with it. Manually removing that symlink and instead linking to the libcap.so.2 in /lib64 solved the problem for me.
cd /opt/adobe/fms
rm libcap.so.1
ln -s /lib64/libcap.so.2 libcap.so.1

Firefox won't run, but says it is when I try to unistall it - Win 7 task manager says it isn't..how can I get around this to uninstall it?

I have been trying to open a browser window with Mozilla Firefox 6.0.2 (x86 en-US). It won't run, however, when I try to uninstall the program, it says I have to close firefox first. Win 7 task manager does not show the program as running.
I tried again, and still get the same message from Firefox. I checked the task manager again, not running. Tried running it - won't run. Tried uninstall, got the same message, close firefox before trying to uninstall - firefox isn't running!
I would appreciate any help that you could give me. I want to use firefox, especially since it is the browser that opens Webkinz correctly for my grandkids.

In the task manager, are you looking at Processes? That is where you find Firefox listed when you see no interface, not in Applications.
This page might have some useful information about that problem.
