4. In the search box, type in "d3drm.dll" (without the quotes).
5. Next, click on "Search Now" or hit "Enter" to start the search.
6. If the "d3drm.dll" file is found, right-click on the file and choose "Copy".
7. Go to the Desktop and hold down "CTRL" and then press "V" on your keyboard.
8. The "d3drm.dll" file should now appear on the Desktop.
9. Next, copy the "d3drm.dll" file from the Desktop to a USB flash drive or you can e-mail the file to yourself.
10. Now, on the computer running Windows Vista, download the "d3drm.dll" file once again to the Desktop.
11. Right-click on the "d3drm.dll" file and choose "Copy".
12. If using Windows Vista 32-bit navigate to: C:\Windows\System32
If using Vista 64-bit, navigate to: C:\Windows\SysWOW64
