Kingtotalwar,

I've got no idea what the actual file is or what it does, but if it is missing than the install might not have worked, try re-installing and see if it still happens.

I don't know for sure, but it sounds like you don't have the correct version of directX.

Just install the most recent version of Direct-X from www.miscrosoft.com and that should fix it.
It will be named DX9.0c but it may still contain newer files since not every new version gets a new name.

Just run the file - it's an executable.

If you need more help refer to your post in the Apothecary; that's where this thread belongs.
