IvanMC 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 well direct x is something you need to have in order to play, you can download it, and that should solve your problem, although most computers have it already Link to post Share on other sites
Administrators Amethyst 2466 Posted June 27, 2013 Administrators Share Posted June 27, 2013 The problem actually isn't DirectX here. From what I've heard about this error, it's your sound card driver. There are a few options. One site says this: "it means the driver for your soundcard is either out-of-date or corrupted somehow by somekind of virus. Find out what kind of soundcard you have, then go to the DirectX website and download the latest version." (It's probably just out of date; I doubt many viruses target sound cards) So if you can find an updated driver you should be in good shape Link to post Share on other sites
Damian Cervantas 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 i have the latest version of direct x i checked it today. I dont have the money to update my drivers is there any "free" way to do so? Link to post Share on other sites
Administrators Amethyst 2466 Posted June 27, 2013 Administrators Share Posted June 27, 2013 Drivers should always be free. o-o They're usually provided on the company's website for anyone to download. Link to post Share on other sites
