It's a link to the file you are missing,no idea what and where you put this file though.

Before you download anything i'd wait for more advice from this forum.

I would suggest that you download and install the latest version of direct x

Even though it is a new pc you should probably also check with the manufacturer of your graphics card for the latest drivers.

Finally I would get the latest version of java.http://www.java.com/en/download/inc/windows_upgrade_xpi.jsp

There are some fixes for this in tne FAQ thread

I get the message " d3dx9_41.dll not found"

If you receive this message, update to the latest version of DirectX available from here:

If you continue to have issues with DirectX, there are further links below:

Or for the full package

I found this in the FAQ in case it can give you more help.
