I can prove it doing what i did to have mine updated from 9.0b to 9.0c. I have tryed everything even taking DX9.0b off and substitute for 8.1, but this is not necessary. The only thing all of you should do is: Take the .exe and both .dll in the DX 9.0b folder and use them in the dx9.0c install intead of the ones you have. Step by step: Get both Dx 9.0b and Dx 9.0c REDIST (complete install file zipped) from File planet. Extract one in a TEMP folder like: c:\temp\dx9c and the other in another like: c:\temp\dx9b get the files "dxsetup.exe", "DSETUP.dll", "dsetup32.dll" from the folder that have the DX9b install to the one that have the DX9c install. Substitute the files, than now run normally the setup.exe file, everything will work now. Have good luck, and I hope this solves all of your problems! excuse me but WHAT???? i GOT THE GAME. I tried every single thing they told me to do here. FOR GODS SAKE I INSTALLED IT 3 TIMES!!!!!!!!!! I. Need. Help. Now!
