I recently down loaded a game called Command and Conquer Tiberian Wars but can't run for lack of file d3dx9_29dll where and how do I correct this problem
Hey Paul, what do you mean with "downloaded"? If you did not legally got the program, we may and can not help you!
But, I'd guess that you are missing the actual directX version from microsoft. Take a look at this download-page and see if the problem still occurs after downloading and installing direct X 9.
