but then it doesn show error but doesnt give any msg too but i feel my system busier so i checked in process--it was showing cricket process running and consuming memory..

i terminated process..

Look on the disk. There should be a DirectX directory or some option somewhere to install DirectX. Installing whatever version the disk has and it should take care of it. There's like two separate version of DirectX out there (D3DX9_##.dll and d3d.dll); the disk always has that special version it requires.

On the CD/DVD that the game came on. If you downloaded it, it will be in the download directory.

no files or folders named directx in it.
one file named "instmsi30.exe " is there.

Important Note: Do not, under any circumstances, download the d3dx9_30.dll DLL file individually from any "DLL download site." There are a number of different reasons that downloading DLLs from these sites are never a good idea.
Note: If you've already downloaded d3dx9_30.dll from one of those DLL download sites, remove it from wherever you put it and continue with the following steps.

1. Restart your computer if you haven't yet done so.

The d3dx9_30.dll error might be a fluke or one-time issue and a simple restart could clear it up completely. It's unlikely this will fix the problem, but restarting is always a good first troubleshooting step.

2. Install the latest version of Microsoft DirectX 9. Chances are, upgrading to the latest version of DirectX 9 will fix the d3dx9_30.dll not found error.

Note: Microsoft often releases updates to DirectX 9 without updating the version number or letter so be sure to install the latest release even if your version is technically the same.

Note: Are you a Windows Vista user with DirectX 10? Your game or program may still need DirectX 9 files to run properly so give the installation a try. Don't worry, both versions of DirectX can be run side by side in Windows Vista.

3. Assuming the latest DirectX version from Microsoft doesn't fix the d3dx9_30.dll error you're receiving, look for a DirectX installation program on your game or application CD or DVD. Usually, if a game or other program utilizes DirectX, the software developers will include a copy of DirectX on the installation disc.

Sometimes, though not often, the DirectX version included on the disc is a better fit for the program than the latest version available online.

4. Uninstall the game or software program and then reinstall it again. Something may have happened to the files in the program that work with d3dx9_30.dll and a reinstall could do the trick.

5. Restore the d3dx9_30.dll file from the DirectX 9 software package. If the above troubleshooting steps haven't worked to solve your d3dx9_30.dll error, try extracting the d3dx9_30.dll individually from the DirectX 9 package.

6. Update the drivers for your video card. While it's not the most common solution, in some situations updating the drivers for the video card in your computer could correct this DirectX issue.

Either your directX is outdated and needs updating, or you have no video card drivers installed.

Hi, I'm new here and I can see that this thread is quite old, but mayabe someone can help as I'm getting the same trouble with the d3dx9_30.dll file. The thing is that I don't see any reason why I should download that file from a dll download site and replace it as I can see it, so if I can see it, why does it give me the 'missing' error...? Anyway, in Microsoft's support http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319114 they say that these errors might occur due to a wrong path to that file (also mentioned here), so any idea how I can find and repair the problematic 'path' to that file...?
