Hello,

So my porblem is that whenever I try to run GTA IV it says "C:\Windows\System32\d3dx9_43.dll is either not....", it happens with any game I try to start, this started after I totaly reseted my Computer.

Thanks.

Did you download the "d3dx9_43.dll" file and put it in "C:\Windows\System32\" ?

Find on the internet program called Dependency Walker. Once you install it, open GTAIV.exe with it.. and scroll down to see what files are colored red. Delete the files you are having problems with.. and re-install DirectX

That worked once for me


btw if you have 64Bit Win, you can try putting that file in both system folders, System32 and SysWOW64

Just reinstall your IVMP. It worked for me when I had login problems. You know, many games after the Economic crisis in 2007 have developed a file called safefile or gamesafe or something like that. This file keeps your game progress intact, even if you uninstall the game. Just do not delete that file, or you will start from zero.  :rage: It is usually located in C.

Just keep digging for your true purpose in life! That is, of course, what you deeply want and have dreamed of your entire life! Just, don't waste it on becoming a replica of someone... We are really UNIQUE how we are.

Reinstalled the game multiple times already nothing fixed.

Did you try it out with Dependency Walker? Those files might be corrupted and you maybe need a new, clean.. installation of the freshest DirectX version that is supported by your GPU
