Full Version: Direct X problem.
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I downloaded the PCSX2 today, got the BIOS, configured the settings so that it would read my CD from the drive and clicked Run CD/DVD. I get a message Direct X needs to be installed, would you like to open a link in your browser.

I click Yes, but the Download link (and every other Windows link) Seems to be broken! Then I get an error message from the PCSX2 saying

"The GC plugin failed to open/initialise".

I've read the FAQ's and the Config thread, but can't find the problem there.
I have a feeling though that the news isn't going to be good and that my Graphics Card won't be compatible. Im using a Laptop, which is only a few Months old, but I can't find my Graphics Card Details anywhere to see if it is compatible.

Any help would be appreciated.
you need the newest directx

Yes, I understand that, but for some reason the Direct X link on the Microsoft Website is Broken. Blink
