    Hello,

    I acquired the Demo version of BeamNG.drive today. I had just finished installing and wanted to play, and then all of a sudden, a windows popped up with this message: "The program can't start because X3DAudio1_7.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." That's rather abnormal.

    I was wondering why it was saying that. :confused: I clicked on "OK", and another window displayed itself: "Unable to load game library: C:\Users\*******\AppData\Local\BeamNG-Techdemo-0.3\BeamNGSandbox.x86.dll. Please make sure it exists and the latest DirectX is installed." I have the latest version of DX, and I'm not exactly sure as to why this isn't working. Any help whatsoever on this situation would be quite helpful.

    I am running on an HP 2000 Notebook PC, with Windows 8.0 installed, if that's integral information. Requests for other information are granted by request.

    Thanks,
    -MacOS9

    Specs? Have you tried reinstalling DirectX?

    Thanks for the help, I'll try it to see if it works now. If it doesn't, I'll let you know :D

    It worked! If an admin could close this topic, that would be great.

    I suggest you make a new thread. But it sounds more of a computer issue than a BeamNG issue.

    I don think it's the game, do you have enough RAM for it?

    Do make a separate thread and explain your issue in details please.
