edrosario 0 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 There is something happening that I would like to find a solution. I tried reading the manual but couldn't find anything related. When I open the OPTION window and go to Sound tab, FSFK doesn't allow me to set any parameter, instead, it shows this message: Sound Setup DirectX 8 or higher is currently not installed! I DO have DirectX 9.0c installed in my computer. Any advice/suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advanced. edrosario Note: I use Windows XP with all the latest updates. I'll be glad to provide any info needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexdiazb 5 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Hi, Can you check please and run the FSFK in administrator mode and then try again? Regards, Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Molitor 24 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Can you please check if the following file is installed: "C:\Windows\System32\DX8VB.dll". Regards Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrosario 0 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 Thanks Thomas for your reply... Yes, dx8vb.dll is there. I can also see dx7vb.dll (if that helps) edrosario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Molitor 24 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Ok. Then I guess that this DLL is not correctly registered on your system. Open a command/dos prompt as admin. Now enter the following commands: cd C:\Windows\System32regsvr32 dx8vb.dll This should result in a new window telling you that this DLL has been registered. Now check if you can get into the sound profiles. Hope this helps Thomas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
