So, I remember an option of the full pack the contained this one file was to launch it's executable file and load ALL of X_9.

No file version here BUT a slight difference in size? This is beginning to look like I do have a d3dx9_41.dll but the PC can't see it and I may of "loaded" it incorrectly. Make sure that "C:\Windows\System32\d3dx9_41.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again).Ĭhecking the figures listed within System32 for that DLL it shows : 5299 kb, application extension, created 15:27. Remembering that a Utility I use - FileMenu Tools - had a "register DLL" option I tried that and, on right click got the following : (The module "C:\Windows\System32\d3dx9_41.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer was not found. Sorry for delay in responding, had minor issue with how BIOS saw my HDD's - fixed - and unfortunately had nothing to do with this DLL.įrom your facts on the DLL my PC may not have the right DLL. I do thank you VERY much for your help as I understand that, in the infinite confusion that can be a MS OS, my problem may be up a cul-de-sac somewhere. Which brought me to another question : how the hell do you "uninstall" these DirectX files to ensure you load a nice clean version on your PC? To me it just looks like chaos! I expected to see a folder but instead I have DLL's in a alpha/numeric order spread throughout the VERY long list of System32 components. and aren't the versions meant to be backward compatible? One thing I have found out is just how messy DirectX is within System32. But, Ver.9 was really for XP and I have Vista 圆4, I should - ideally - be using Ver.10.

delete ALL DirectX and install a FULL load. Damned frustrating and I can only think that the way MS has rebuilt my OS this time with it's updates it's missing something from the original set-up. My previous several "hundred years" redefining history as Gaul was stored in another folder on another disk, I could have started as anybody I suppose and then quit/save and then reloaded that saved game but how would I know if I had fixed the problem? It was the installation of vv_232 that brought the "missing DLL" pop-up box back into play. Having unloaded the failed Rome, used Ccleaner to fully remove all traces, then reloaded Rome I restarted again, opened Rome and. Can't see where else a DLL would be loaded and they're all there in that folder. Checked it was there in the right alpha/numeric order, then restarted and checked again. Following their instructions I downloaded the FULL package directly from MS and extracted it's contents to a folder on the desktop, then I found the file, copied and pasted into the System32.

The best link I found on the web that gave me clear instructions - and warned me not to download so-called "third party" fixes - was. one reason for the research I put into "what is a DLL, etc." is, though I'd seen them cause problems before, I had no idea of how they worked. so what's it not like now with the 2.3.2 AndrewT. d3dx9_41.dll was not found".īollox! Every time I look it's damn well there and this game ran on this very PC/OS before. The result? Game won't open under any form of persuasion at all. Remembering that I hadn't updated the game I downloaded and correctly installed vv_232. whatever Direct X I've got the game found the missing DLL. it worked! Full access to anything and everything. which I did and checked it was there in C:\Windows\system32. Gob-smacked when I saw that version 11 was loaded when I ran DxDiag! Eventually finding a site that gave step-by-step info on extracting and installing an individual DLL.

Unaccustomed as I am to shoving a wrench into the OS I spent ages learning about this and hours wasted trying to upgrade my Direct X. First problem was the "JIT" error - see posts above - and that was corrected by reading the post and downloading the missing bit of Windows. exactly as before and the game, including VV expansion pack, worked seamlessly on that earlier install. Eventually realising that my grumpy manner was a result of not playing Rome regularly I loaded the CD-ROM. A serious problem with the original OS install of Vista 圆4 on my tower PC meant I saved files and started again rebuilding the OS, etc.
