Check if your drivers are totally all up to date and if the problem is not solved uninstall Hitman Absolution and then install Windows 7 Updates . Then give a restart to your computer and install the game again. If you have Steam the game will run normally with no errors.

Hi Donald,

Your files of DirectX 11 might be corrupted or misplaced. Perhaps you should try downloading and installing DirectX 11 here. If the error still occurring, try these following steps:

1. Download d3d11.dll

2. Extract the file.

3. Paste the file to these directories: 

"C:WindowsSystem32".
"C:WindowsSystem".
"C:Program FilesSQUARE ENIXHitman Absolution".

4. Then, restart your computer.

Regards, 

Martine Paul
