The application was unable to start correctly. - KaMakaZeDaN - 03-12-2011
Hey all, ive been using a much older version of dolphin for a while now and after a few crashes after dodgy cutscenes in Zelda WW i thought i'd upgrade.
Im running Windows 7 x64, and im trying to run the very latest release of dolphin (7329 x64) but unfortunately im getting an error.
Quote:The application was unable to start correctly (0x000007b). Click OK to close the application.
I have searched the forum and found a few post about this issue, one suggesting that i should update DirectX, i ran the updater from windows and it told me i had the current or newer version of Dx.
Many posts i found remain unanswered though :/
System Specs:
Windows 7 64-bit
Intel i7 950
6GB DDR3 Ram
Nvidia 560Ti
My graphics card supports Directx 11 and it is installed as i've been playing Dragon Age 2, im not sure if thats the issue here. I definitely still have dx9 installed.
I'm going to install VS C++ as another topic suggested but i dont see that fixing it?
If it does i will update for people with the same error.
I have installed VS C++ and im still getting this error. Directx is definitely up to date.

I'm having the same problem. DirectX is up to date. Running windows 7 64-bit. The 2.0 release candidate will work but anything newer than that gives me that unable to start error.

Hello everyone, i know what could be happening, i got the same error message, and i fixed it (partially, cause now i cant configure D-Pads) replacing xinput1_3.dll in system32 folder (i was changing a few things trying to emulate xbox 360 controllers), and i lost the original xinput1_3.dll, so if anyone can post his xinput1_3.dll ill really appreciate that, Thanks.

No. Please update your dx9. Replacing dlls manually is stupid. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&displaylang=en
