Sounds like a DirectX problem - I'd guess that it's looking for DirectX9 by the DLL name, and that isn't installed for some reason.

Perhaps try installing directly from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/...aspx?id=35

I can't say why XBMC isn't picking it up as a dependency, though... I thought it automatically installed DirectX as needed.

Pass, then, I'm afraid - this sounds like a Windows problem, and I don't have an XP system any more to take a look for you!

I'll need to turn it over to folks more knowledgeable than me...

Unless its an easy fix, then I think you might be out of luck - I'm sure support for xp was stopped some time ago IIRC.
