D3dx9_41.dII error in a game

Asked By rodriguezscotte 20 points N/A Posted on - 06/19/2012

Hello

I was playing a game when suddenly an error window appeared on the screen. It said:

 

This application has failed to start because d3dx9_42.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

ROClientGame.exe – Unable To Locate Component

This application has failed to start because d3dx9_42.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may 

fix this problem.

 

As you all know this error occurs when a game is started. I cannot find a way out. Has anyone seen such an error and fixed it before.

I have posted this query to many forums but no response yet.

I’m looking forward to your response.

Thanks in advance

Regards.

D3dx9_41.dII error in a game

Hi Rodriguezscotte,

This type of error is related to the DirectX installed on your computer. Direct X is a collection of APIs that is used for games development and other multimedia related programming.

This error refers to a missing DLL file of DirectX, and here is how to solve it:

– you need to download and install the latest version of DirectX (web installer: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35) which will automatically fix your missing DLL problem.

-If that doesn't solve it you may need to uninstall and reinstall the game since some games do provide their own versions of the DLL other than the latest version which suites them better.
