Trying to download game and getting Spooge drivers not installed message

The game is Dawn of War and everytime I try to download it I get that message, I am going through what hotfixes from microsoft I can for my graphics card but so far they aren't doing the trick. I don't know if this is the right forum for this or not but hopefully someone can at least point me in the right direction. Thanks for any help.

There's something wrong with your DirectX install. Dawn Of War will not run under Parallels or VMWare Fusion.. Also Parallels has been known to hose DirectX. Click your START menu in Windows and then RUN. Type: dxdiag and runs through some tests.
redownload DX web installer and install the latest version.. DoW should play fine afterward. I don't think the game will run under integrated graphics cards too- the shaders are not present.

  • I tried to download games and now the icons are stuck in waiting.  I have an Ipad 2.

    On my ipad2 I tried to download games from app store.  The apps are stuck in waiting mode and not installing.  I have downloaded other apps after this happened and the newer apps are working fine.

    check your itunes download queue. I had 18 items stuck and it did not try to download anything before I cleared that. I had the same problem with apps stuck in waiting and had tried reboot and deleting the app and retry but what finally solved the issue was clearing the iTunes download queue.
    Good luck everyone.

  • Stupid, why download itunes and get a prompt to install a new version once running?

    Why not put the new version to download on the site?
    Why does it not install quicktime anymore? so stupid to have to do stuff over and over again and get all this stuff to work.
    KISS
    Keep It Simple Stupid!
    Stop mucking stuff up and making it harder for us IT guys.

    Plenty of non-IT guys and girls have no problem selecting Help/Check for Updates in iTunes and following any prompts they see. Whenever I've done this, or when iTunes has informed me that there is an update, I am given a choice to download, or not, everything I need, including Quicktime. I simply don't un-check the Quicktime download.
    Since this is done in iTunes, there is no need to "download from the site".
    Personally, I think it is simple. Mind you, I am an ex-IT guy.

  • I tried to download ios6 and my ipad will not turn on at all.

    My ipad is totally unresponsive since trying to upload iOS6. My computer will not reconize the device either.

    Assuming that the battery isn't empty (and it can take up to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Edit function in picasa disappeared; how do i get this back? tried to download picasa 3.9 but could not install with picasa 3.8 in computer.

    what happened to info i just wrote? I have mac osx

    Hi, pukka.moi. Using Pacifist and an original OS installer set is the only way — you can't download applications and components that are part of the OS, as Printer Setup Utility and the spelling dictionary are.

  • I tried to download your firefox but it would not install correctly

    I have had your Firefox browser before. However, I don't have it now. I recently tried to download it but it did not install correctly. Nothing appears on the screen when I open it. What seems to be the Problem?
    I like Firefox but cannot install it. Why?

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
    #Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
    '''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
    After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
    * '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
    * '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
    #Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
    #In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
    #Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
    #* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
    #* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
    #Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
    Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    #Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    #Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • Tried to download itunes. but itunes helper was not installed

    tried to install itunes but had an error code 1400. itunes helper was not installed.

    have tried uninstalling all APPLE products,
    Doublechecking. Were you using the instructions from the following documents?
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    (Doublechecking, because an error 7 off ituneshelper normally indicates trouble with Apple Application Support. If something else is going on, it's pretty exotic.)

  • I'm trying to download ML, and get the product distribution file error. I have repaired the permissions in Disk Utility, I don't seem to have a applestore cache. I am on a corporate network, so am thinking it might be firewall related. Ideas?

    Hello folks
    I've tried every option I can to self support, from disk repair to deleting caches (I don't usually use the appstore so don't have one), and I don't have a pckge file either.
    I'm on a corporate network that restricts access to iTunes, so suspect it may be related to a firewall issue, although it has been relaxed to let me access the app store.
    Any other ideas of what to check myself before I go to tech support, and what do I need to get them to do. They are not really a mac supporting unit, so I need specific instructions.
    I'm on a mac pro, upgrading from Snow Leopard, so download is my only option.
    Thanks

    Read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data.
    Quit the App Store application if it’s running.
    Step 1
    Hold down the option key and select
    Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.appstore
    Leave the Library folder open. Try the App Store again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
    Step 2
    If you still have problems, quit again. Go back to the Finder and move the following item from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
    Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Test. If the App Store now works, delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit again. Put back the files you moved, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place, and continue.
    Step 3
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    test -d $TMPDIR../C/com.apple.appstore && rm -r $_
    Drag or copy and paste the selected line — do not type it — into the Terminal window. You should get a new line ending in a dollar sign ("$"). Quit Terminal.
    Test. If the issue is still not resolved, post again.

  • HT1349 Hi can u help I've been trying to download games and it's showing declined on my card detail when I have purchase games before not even allowing me to download free games can u help please

    Hi I can not download as my card details keep saying declined even with free games I have purchased games before can u help

    There seems to be a problem with your payment details with the credit card associated with your Apple ID. You need to correct that before you will be able to download anything. Use the Settings app to check payment detail.
    Settings > iTunes and App Store > tap on your Apple ID > View Apple ID > enter Apple ID password > Payment Information
    View and correct your payment information. You could have an expired card. Your card may be blocked by the issuer of the card.

  • Trying to set up airport extreme with a dsl modem and get DSN server not found message .   Get a green light on airport but no internet modem and get

    Am attempting to set up a Wi Fi network with an airport extreme.    Get most of the way through the setup  (have a dsl modem) but get an error that it cannot connect to the internet.   Says I have a problem with a DSN server and asks for  what appears to be a series of numbers.    I had an old airport express working for some time and never saw this.  
    Decided to upgrade since the express was not powerful enough to work in the whole house.

    It is always a good idea when changing out networking hardware to perform a complete power recycle of all of your networking gear.
    Please try the following:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS), and computer(s). Leave them powered-off for at least 10-15 minutes.
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to make sure that is has enough time to initialize.
    Power-up (plug into power) the AEBS; wait at least 5-10 minutes or until its status light is a solid green. (Note: The status light may continue to flash amber after this timeframe. This is ok as it may just be letting you know that some additional configuration items need to be taken care of like setting up wireless security.)
    Power-up the computer(s).
    Computers connected to the AEBS by either wire or wireless should now be able to access the Internet. Please post back your results.

    If you can't remember your answers then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
