Debuged the problem, it seems that the directx 10 that is installed is missing something in the compatiblity, so you need to run the updates.... so this is how:

Search Microsoft.com for "DirectX end-user runtime" and run it (it is also called 'DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer", it will install what ever is missing in the direct x 10 to 9 compatability that is missing.

Do a search for d3dx9_35.dll file on your PC. Do you have it now, after DirectX update?
