MS DirectMusic Core Services

Server 2008 R2 Workstation , Add Comment (1)

If you get an error like You will need to install DirectX #.# to run #. when starting a game, you probably need to install the Microsoft DirectMusic Core Services to get the game working. An example of a game which needs this patch is Grand Theft Auto 2. The .dll and .mui files are extracted from the MSDN dvd of Windows 7 x64. dmusic.inf is taken from DirectX.cab of the DirectX 9.0c Redistributable.

1. Download dmusic.zip (121 KB) from win2008r2workstation.

2. After downloading the zip extract the zip, run install.cmd as an Administrator and follow the instructions on the screen.
Extract dmusic.zip and run install.cmd

 

Continue to install the Game Controllers Control Panel applet…

    could you not just install the latest DirectX? I have done this and dont seem to have an issue with games that use DirectX…

    But maybe im missing games that are special to this issue?
