S3 Series

WB works fine on this PC but after I copy program on flash drive and put on different PC I get an error msg when I try to open.
It say d3dx9_42.dll is missing.

What am I doing wrong?

BTW
Almost time to send in the maintenance teams and get the birds ready! Hope all has had a great summer so far.

Does your other PC have directX 9.0c on it? Looks like you are missing a Direct X file. New computers are into D11/12 so they will not have drivers for 9.0c games on them.

Correct. Download Direct X 9.0c

Cant seem to find what I need. My system is Win 7 64 bit.
Would I have what I need on this PC that I can fly with, if so where to look? If not could someone send me a link pls.. Also, do I just download to game folder or what? PC Dummy here + I just got out of stinking hosp and still under the weather.
Thanks for any help guys

Install
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download ... px?id=8109

when the pop up box at the bottom of your screen appears click "run"

Tks but when I click on link I get:
We are sorry, the page you requested cannot be found.
The URL may be misspelled or the page you're looking for is no longer available.

2nd time it allowed me to dwn load and I hit run. It now at point it ask what location to place it?

The default location it provides should suffice. It should put it somewhere in the Windows directory. DirectX is a system driver that allows it understand what the application (warbirds) is telling it to function.

When I go to link you provided I find a number of files that can be downloaded. So when I found one that had the name "aspx?id+8109" in it I tried it. After Dwn. load I hit run and had it put in WB 2016 folder--well when I try and open WB I still get the msg "d3dx9_42.dll is missing"

What now?

It is a SYSTEM driver, not a Warbirds file.

This is the download you want: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34429

After download the web browser should ask to open or run. Run the program and it will download where it is suppose to. You shouldn't have to do anything but push run and finish, don't change the location of it asks.
