SNES not working

[calico33]

Imported games for snes and it's giving me a system error saying  snes9x-x64.exe- system error. The code execution cannot proceed because d3dx9_42.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.  What am I suppose to do now? Please help.

Or you can just follow the link that I'm going to include which is directly from Microsoft and you can install all DX runtimes.

Hey guys!, Thanks for the help, I forgot that I didn't have direct X on this PC yet. Had to reinstall windows when i got this pc and forgot about direct x, so thank you for the help and i have two more questions, I played super ghouls n ghosts on snes and it slowed down when more enemies came on screen, how do you fix that and I tried importing turbo graphix 16 last night and can't get them to run, Don't know where the bios goes, are the the bios and roms suppose to be pcie or zipped. I really appreciate the help, thank you!!!

Ghouls and ghosts slowed down horribly on the original snes hardware, so if you are using a accurate emulator it will there also.

I guess that depends on the emulator, in retroarch its unzipped and named syscard3.pce.

Just to clarify my intentions with telling calico33 that I could just upload the file for them to download, sometimes a directx reinstall doesn't always fix it and not everyone knows how to extract individual files from cab files so I was offering as an alternative to what most people end up doing and downloading it from one of those .dll sites which is never a good idea. 

While we appreciate the well intentioned offer a user should really use the official installers from microsofts website. As you yourself said

And that is absolutely correct, but downloading it from a random guy on a forum is also a bad idea. I'm not for one second saying that the files you have are not legit at all, its just that users need to be careful where they get files like that from, hence we prefer to link the official place to get them rather than than have to go on the word of someone who with all due respect is a total stranger to the person needing the file.
