Windows 10: DirectX 9

Discus and support DirectX 9 in Windows 10 Gaming to solve the problem; I have a Dell Inspiron 15 that came with Windows 10, but the hard drive failed and it was replaced with another hard drive with Windows 10 on it, too.... Discussion in 'Windows 10 Gaming' started by chramos2007, Nov 5, 2018.

  1. DirectX 9


    I have a Dell Inspiron 15 that came with Windows 10, but the hard drive failed and it was replaced with another hard drive with Windows 10 on it, too. I tried installing GMod off of Steam, and it says it's missing a .dll file that has to do with DirectX 9. I tried fully reinstalling DirectX 9, but I can't install it on Windows 10. It says that it can only run on up to Windows 7 or XP.


    Is there anyone who could help me with this on here or should I ask this again on Steam?

    :)

  2. Microsoft Store: DirectX 9 required

    We appreciate the update. Since the issue is still the same even if you have DirectX 9 or later, we suggest that you reinstall your graphic card drivers instead. Follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows Key + X and choose Device Manager.
    • Go to Display Adapters section and locate your graphic card driver.
    • Right click the driver and choose Uninstall.
    • Check Remove the driver software for this device and click
      OK
      .
    • After you’ve uninstalled the driver, restart your computer.
    • When your computer restarts, go to your graphic card manufacturer’s website and download the latest drivers for your graphic card.
    • Install the downloaded drivers.

    Let us know how it goes.

  3. DirectX 9

    Thank you for your response. The 9th version of Direct X had already been downloaded and installed. From this page. My graphics card probably is not compatible with DirectX 9 or Windows 10 can not use the DirectX version 9 for an unknown reason.

    Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, my problem remains. The latest version of DirectX is downloaded and installed. In addition, the latest update for DirectX 9 is also downloaded and installed. But when installing Microsoft's Store Apps, I still
    encounter this message: "Direct X 9 is required"
