Bug Report OBS Won't Install

[jonyappleseed]

Whenever I try and open the installer, it says my system is missing directx components. When I say download now, it directs me to microsoft and I download it. I go through everything that the directx setup says, but when I go and try to download OBS again, it says the exact same thing. I start the directx setup again, and it says that it has determined that a newer or equivalent version of directx has been installed already. What am I supposed to do to to be able to download OBS? I really want to be able to use it instead of XSplit because it is so easy to use and has a lot less hassle.

Make sure you download and install this: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download ... px?id=8109

Where do I save the extracted files? Or does it not matter.

 

[dodgepong]

Not really, just extract it somewhere and run the installer.

 

[jonyappleseed]

I did it. It didn't work D:

 

[dodgepong]

What is the exact error?

 

[jonyappleseed]

Your system is missing DirectX components that Open Broadcast Software requires. Would you like to download them now?

What happens if you just download the zipped program directly?

 

[jonyappleseed]

How can I do that?
*EDIT
I tried that, and it says that it can't run because it is missing the directx component D:

btw, I had OBS working completely fine before, but I got a new OS so I could use all of my RAM, and it stopped working. I deleted windows old.

Now I'm getting this error that says OBS.exe - Bad Image
C:\Windows\syster32\d3dx10_43.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support.

Delete that file then re-run the directx setup.

 

[jonyappleseed]

Same thing happened.

 

[R1CH]

Exactly the same, or a different file? In any case your DX install seems damaged, you need to remove the files that are the incorrect architecture and re-run the setup.

 

[jonyappleseed]

How can I remove the DirectX files? Where are they located?

Close any running applications, Try extracting and reinstalling the entire DirectX package and restart your computer. http://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... redist.exe
