direct x install

Finally upgraded from an old xp 32 bit system to a new windows 8 system. I'm trying to get my MW set up and downloaded directx 9.0c. However, I don't know where it is supposed to be installed. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

It installs in windows\system32 - just let the install exe do its thing. It doesn't install in the MW folder if that's what you're thinking.

When I try to install to system 32 I get an error message saying it is an invalid folder and to make sure it exists.

Edit; Never mind. Just figured out to run as administrator and it worked. Thanks
