NFS most wanted

[DeadCore]

long story short:i have a problem when i try to install NFSMW it says this game needs directx9 to work which i have so what could the problem be?

 

[Dark Agent]

Direct 9c SDK.

 

[foozball3000]

Re-install DirectX?
What OS do you have?

sounds like your windows is going on a rampage... my friends pc was like that, had to format and re-install windows again and again and again

Try :

find the game's Autorun.exe file (in the base directory of the game CD),
right-click on it, select Properties, go to the Compatibility tab,
tick the 'Run this program in compatibility mode for' and select
'Windows 2000'. Then double-click on Autorun.exe to begin installation.
Make sure to turn off compatibility mode after installing the game.

tried it Luke7777 but it doesn't work,i think i have way too many important things on it to format it and DirectX9c is on the game DVD that i installed but it still gives same error.
