What are you doing when you get that error? Running an app or compiling.

Try reinstialling the SDK or try the end user files http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9226A611-62FE-4F61-ABA1-914185249413 that should but everything you need in the right place.

i get the error when I try to compilie something with xna it does it with the space war start up kit

or just if you compilie a new project with nothing done to it. The

direct x sdk was downloaded on another computer because i us dialup

could it be because it wasn't the redistributable version

that they downloaded? and its d3dx9d_30.dll i forgot the underscore 30 last time.

If you downloaded the most recent SDK you should be fine. It was the August '06 SDK, right? Check the C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK\Developer Runtime\x86 folder (or wherever you installed it). Is the DLL there?

Hello,

I got similar error while trying to run the space war starter kit. :( Not the d3dx9_30.dll error but the NoSuitableGraphicDeviceFound error.

I'm running on Windows XP SP2

There's your problem. That card doesn't even really qualify as a 3D card. It's a "legacy" card on the S3 site (that thing is about 6 years old -- ancient in graphics years).

The NoSuitableGraphicDeviceFound error has been answered many times. Search the forums.

Hi - I am trying to download the game "World Series of Poker 2007 Edition" and it the download is successful. However, I am getting the same error about d3dx9d.dll. I've gone to the website and completed the download that you suggested but it's still not working. Any other suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
