Niall-Hi Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 First of all, I'd like to say that this is the first time I've ever had a problem with a new release of Football Manager, so well done so far SI. Unfortunately, for reasons I cannot fathom, the game itself and the editor wont load. I get the following error: "This application has failed to start because d3dx9_41.dll was not found." I have installed the 10.1 patch and has tried reinstalling FM twice. Direct X has been installed from the CD and computer restarted. No change. Any ideas SI?

Glenn Wakeford Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Try getting Direct X from here and installing: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&displaylang=en Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CovFan Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I had the same problem and solved it by downloading this: http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?d3dx9_41 and following the instructions provided. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
