Ok so I have a friend who recently downloaded Perfect World International, got the Direct X9.0c (or whatever it was that's needed lol) and everytime they go to hit Start to bring up the client itself, it closes completely. Is there anyway way to fix that or any reason why it's doing that that can be corrected?

Please and thank you to any feed back on this :)

    Also he's got Direct X 10 and your unable to roll back to 9.0c...he downloaded and installed 9.0c tho....but how do you go back to 9.0c instead of 10 for this to..since it's required to run it.

    Also did the whole DirectX End Runtime Web Installer.......Says that the newer verison is currently installed...

    There's a couple of threads on this. Also, the client should (with the latest patches), automatically detect that the runtimes need to be installed and load them up. (At least it has for the systems I am testing on.)

    Here's a link posted recently in the forum.

    Since that installer contains ALL of the distributions of DirectX, if it's still not working after that, he's got something else going on. I'd be happy to help, but I'll need specifics on errors, hardware, OS, and security software.

    I had him uninstall and reinstall the game and it worked. Thank you very much for your patience and willingness to help. It's appreciated so much
