I bought and installed SSZ today and any time that I try to run the game I get the following error report:

"This application has failed to start because D3DCOMPILER_43.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."

I have tried re-installing both the game and the patch several times and this has not fixed the issue. I don't know what else to do about so I thought I'd ask in case somebody out there experienced the same thing.

D3DCOMPILER_43.dll is a DirectX component.

You might want to try updating DirectX (I think this game specifically needs DirectX 11 to work).

I went through some troubleshooting and did update DirectX, which made the error report go away, but something is still buggy. Any time I run the game it shows only a black screen which switches to multi-colored triangled whenever I click the mouse. The only way to get out of that screen is by logging out of my computer account. I don't know if that's a graphics card issue or a patch issue. I'm sure I have the latest patch so for now I'll look into updating the graphics card.

Thanks. :)

EDIT: Bah, it is the card. I can't even update it, I need an entirely new card.
