i dont have the game due to me downloading it

Hello,

Then you won't be able to fix it. Only the installer has the dll to put it back.

ok thanks anyway

isnt this DLL part of directX? if so, wouldnt re-installing DX solve the problem?

heres a link to that DLL file if its of any help, you may be able to manually add it.

any idea how to get it to run with the game?

you could try putting it in the same directory as the games .EXE

E.g C:/program files/football manager ( or what ever its called)

right clicking the games shortcut on your desktop then and properties should give you the exact location.

To get the DLL file working:

After you download "*.Dll"(file extension dll) on your machine, copy it to
windows/system32/
Go to "start" ==> "run" and type "regsvr32 d3dx9_37.dll" to register the file to the system. For windows 95/98/xp/2000/vista,and win vista, no dlls is corrup!
