    that didn't help, neither manual installation from this link https://www.winhelponline.com/blog/directx-end-user-runtime-dll-files/#extract. I just reinstaled whole windows,then first what i did was installing Directx End-User runtime library and now it's ok.

    Hi ,

    Access the BIOS and disable the iGPU to keep only Nvidia.

    Access the BIOS > Advanced > AMD CBS > NBIO Commn Options > GFX Configuration > iGPU Disabled.

    Use AMD Cleanup to remove the AMD video driver.

    The older DirectX setup can't be run on Windows 10/11. The only option is manually extracting the DLLs from the DirectX cab files.

    d3dx9_28.dll is located inside Dec2005_d3dx9_28_x64.cab.
