Hi dohanso,

This type of problem usually occurs when setup d3dx9_32.dll is missing from your computer. This dll file can be downloaded from here. 
 http://copyright violation/download-missing-d3dx9_32-dll/
Download it and then extract the downloaded zip file to the Windows System32 folder, which is located in Windows Drive.
