FRAPS DX9 Error on Startup

Aceman.au · Mar 29, 2011

I have DX11, is that what's causing this error on start up? Tried reinstalling DX9 but it always comes back.

Melvis · Mar 29, 2011

I have never had that problem, but i would not have the program run on start up, only on demand. Try that see what happens?

This +1 ^

that should fix up any problems with direct x and Fraps..... your most likely just missing a file.

Tried that

Go to windows\system32 and copy d3d9.dll as well as all d3dx9_**.dll should be 24 to 43 to the FRAPS folder

Reinstalling DX9?

I hope you mean updating DX from micro$oft site , right?
It will take care of all DX missing that's included anything from Dx9 true Dx11

how I fixed this

I have a solution for this ... just applied this on my laptop after running into the same error.

I unchecked the option to run FRAPS when Windows starts, and I created a scheduled task to start it (via Task Scheduler) instead. The trick here is that you can choose to trigger the task at logon, but with a 30 seconds delay. This way I was able to avoid the error and still have FRAPS start automatically.

I have the same problem too but I'm on windows 8.1! Anything that uses directX says i dont have directx installed. they used to work perfect! when i opened dxdiag.exe it said everything was ok. so i tried an uninstaller but it said that i didnt even have direct x anymore. Here's a picture:

Directx setup says i already have 11 or newer. PLEASE HELP!

http://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=35 for the latest directx installer. If that doesn't work, then you may need to re-install your video driver, or change it to a different version. If that doesn't work... you've got problems!

Toothless · May 31, 2014

I've ran into this issue multiple times, and all I do is keep trying until it gives in and works.

Or, if you have an NVIDIA card, just use Shadowplay...

johnspack · May 31, 2014

It's funny, I have an Nvidia card, and there are times, or games, where snagit ect just won't capture... fraps does. It really is a good little standby capture app.....

My issue resolved itself magically.
