Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hey guys. I was trying to play metroid prime and when I started, I got a d3d11.dll error and don't know how to fix it. Can anyone please give me a step by step solution for it? Thanks!

OS: Windows Vista 64-Bit
Graphics - Nvidia GTX 550 Ti
Processor - AMD Athlon X2 2.8 GHz
RAM - 4 GB
DirectX - v10

Well, you need to have D3D11 installed. If I remember correctly, which I probably don't, you cannot install D3D11 on Vista.

Update DirectX and that should clear it up. Update your nvidia drivers, but read this first - https://www.facebook.com/dolphin.emu/pos...9847091791

The D3D backend is backwards compatible with D3D10 and D3D10 GPUs.

Run Windows update and grab all the recommended updates. The platform update that installs DX11 will be in there.

Well I can't find my platform update. Could anyone help me using teamviewer?

I could help with that. Send me a PM if you're still having issues installing it
