What are d3dx9_24.dll Error Messages?


Dynamic Link Library d3dx9_24.dll Errors

d3dx9_24.dll is considered a type of Dynamic Link Library (DLL) file. Dynamic Link Library files, like d3dx9_24.dll, are essentially a "guide book" that stores information and instructions for executable (EXE) files - like Setup.exe - to follow. These files were created so that multiple programs (eg. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare) could share the same d3dx9_24.dll file, saving valuable memory allocation, therefore making your computer run more efficiently.

Unfortunately, what makes DLL files so convenient and efficient, also makes them extremely vulnerable to problems. If something happens to a shared DLL file, either it goes missing or gets corrupted in some way, it can generate a "runtime" error message. Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these errors are triggered when d3dx9_24.dll is attempted to be loaded either when Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is starting up, or in some cases already running. Some of the most common d3dx9_24.dll errors include:

Your d3dx9_24.dll file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, d3dx9_24.dll file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, system crash while loading d3dx9_24.dll, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or quite commonly, a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

  3. In the Windows Update dialog box, click "Check for Updates" (or similar button depending on your Windows version)
  4. If updates are available for download, click "Install Updates".
  5. After the update is completed, restart your PC.

If Windows Update failed to resolve the d3dx9_24.dll error message, please proceed to next step. Please note that this final step is recommended for advanced PC users only.

GEEK TIP : We must emphasize that reinstalling Windows will be a very time-consuming and advanced task to resolve d3dx9_24.dll problems. To avoid data loss, you must be sure that you have backed-up all of your important documents, pictures, software installers, and other personal data before beginning the process. If you are not currently backing up your data, you need to do so immediately.



Download d3dx9_24.dll Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying d3dx9_24.dll to your appropriate Windows system directory. Activision typically does not release Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare DLL files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing d3dx9_24.dll and all other DLL files for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. An incorrectly installed DLL file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
