October 6, 200619 yr Hah go figure, I get the demo and the first thing I get is an error that crashes the program as it starts. It reads something about a file called d3d_dx9.dll or something like that is missing. Any ideas?
October 6, 200619 yr the direct3d portion of directx9 is not working properly try redownloading the latest DirectX files from microsoft
October 6, 200619 yr Did you extract the demos contents into a folder then run the setup or did you just run the setup.exe from within the rar? If you did the ladder you would get an error similar to that.
October 6, 200619 yr I got the same error so all I have to do is find this file on the net and install it? HELP. Thanks.
