Ok, im not very good with computers, so idk what to do...
I downloaded the 1.7 patch, everything went fine until I tried to play the game after the install. Once It was finished, and I tried to play Civ 4, I got the error message
"This application has failed to start becayse D3Dx9_32.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."
So, I figured that rather than muck with much else on this particular computer I would simply un-install the game and re-install with pre-patch settings.
Upon Unistall attempt I recieved this message...
"An error (-5004: 0x80041f42) has occurred while running the setup.
Please Make shure you have finished any previous setup and closed all other applications.
If the error still occurs, please contact your vendor: Firaxis Games
(##IDS_PRODUCT_URL##)"
Due to my being ******ed, wtf does this mean... In plain English, with as simple words as possible...
I want to resume playing asap ) :
Idk what the hell to do, and im getting pissed at this comp...
