  • Europa Universalis: Rome
Hi, although I'm not exactly new to the strategy gaming scene, I havn't played a paradox game before, and when I saw an edition of Rome (not gold) on sale at a local store for 6 bucks, I snatched it up. I installed it, and downloaded the 1.3 patch, but whenever I try to start the game, I just get this error message:

romegame.exe-Unable To Locate Component

This application has failed to start because d3dx9_35.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

I have re-installed this several times and not once has it worked :mad:, it has gotten quite frustrating because I've heard such good things about the series. I hope you can help me, for I am quite stumped as to what to do:confused:
