Mark Swan 1351762 0 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I installed the stable vSTARS available from the official download page on my new computer. When i started vSTARS I got the following error: Could not initialize SoundManager: Could not load file or [Mod - Happy Thoughts]embly 'Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback, Version=1.0.2902.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. I then tried running as administrator, then uninstalling it and installing the beta version 1.1.7, and running that as administrator. Still not working. Thanks in advance! Link to post Share on other sites

Wesley Miles 962178 0 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 In case someone experiences this again, I was able to fix it by installing an earlier version of DirectX (9). Wes Miles Air Traffic Director VATUSA - Southern Region Link to post Share on other sites
john alusik 1005094 0 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I'm seeing this myself on a new computer. Windows 10 x64, new video card running DirectX 12, it doesn't appear I can install DirectX9. Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew Morkunas 0 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 The solution -- DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer From the Microsoft website: The Microsoft DirectX® End-User Runtime installs a number of runtime libraries from the legacy DirectX SDK for some games that use D3DX9, D3DX10, D3DX11, XAudio 2.7, XInput 1.3, XACT, and/or Managed DirectX 1.1. Note that this package does not modify the DirectX Runtime installed on your Windows OS in any way. Andrew Morkunas Twitch: padre_andrew ATC Simulations Link to post Share on other sites
