Install DirectX 9.0 from flash drive?

[Mrs. Gordon]

I have 2 computers, one with internet and one without. I tried downloading DirectX 9.0 onto a flash drive then moving it to the other computer, it didn't work. Is that even possible or should I give up trying now? If it is possible I could use some help. Thanks.

It should work, it's just an executable. Are both computers running the same OS?

you need to download Directx 9 redistributeable. (redist)
that is a standalone install, the regualr install requires internet.

Both computers have XP. I downloaded the redist. version. I'm pretty sure I have it but the game I'm trying to run(Rome:Total War) says it can't find it. I just bought this computer used so I'm going to have somebody look at it soon anyways.
