• Serious directx issue. Can't play most games.
    3 replies, posted
I can't play any game in steam that asks me to install a directx update. For some reason I cant install it. I've been messing with this crap for days now, and it's really taking a toll on my nerves. If anyone could help me to solve this I would be eternally grateful. Whenever I try to run a directx update as the game asks me to do, I get this.
