Hi James, unfortunately this is caused by a corrupted or missing DirectX DLL file. The first thing to try is to simply run the LaunchBox installer on that machine (can just overwrite your current folder without problems). If that doesn't work, it means your DirectX install is corrupted which can be a royal pain to fix, but that should be very rare.
