After update client.exe cannot start d3dx9_42.dll

Client.exe - System Error
The program can't start because d3dx9_42.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
Running patch_4.0.10.2522.en_4.0.11.2525.en.exe again... good thing i kept a copy of it.

FYI - used the Directx End-user Web installer and received an Internal System Error Message, if u receive that message just download a second time and install - worked the second time.

ayup. had the same error message. attempting to re-install directx now.

a note to froggie & runewaker... Please let us know beforehand if we need to update core parts of the os before the game will run.

Just try webinstaller. The full package might have not the latest dx drivers. I just installed here and didn't even had to reboot pc. Worked just fine. Here's the link for Portuguese (Brazil), installer

In the thread above users already found the solution, is on directX. Just visit topic and get links for the latest webinstaller from MS and start playing.

I merged all threads concerning this error. Please make sure you have the latest DirectX version for your system installed. Re-installing DirectX will fix the issue. Thank you to everyone who already posted this solution :)

I'm so confused. I download Directx, it tells me to "Type the location where you want to place to extracted files." I just choose documents, but all it is is a bunch of .zip files. Then there is a setup file "DXSETUP", I go through the setup process, but at the end it gives me an error message saying "An internal system error has occured. Please refer to DXError.log and DirectX.log in your windows folder to determine the problem." Then I delete all the .zip files, re download them, and try again. Same thing every time. Please help! :(

Also, I tried the web-installer and it didn't work either.
