Magicka started crashing on startup. While trying to fix this, I decided to update DirectX.
When I run dxwebsetup, it identifies missing "DirectX Runtime Optional Components" and attempts to install, but errors and tells me to check two log files.

Any help would be appreciated.

Error:

An internal system error occurred. Please refer to DXError.log and DirectX.log in your Windows folder to determine problem.

  • I sincerely hope that was a typo (11). I was trying to update using the web installer

  • 9.0c is about 2 years old. DirectX 11 is around the most current version. And also follow this for further information on videocards. Dec 28, 2011 at 20:24

First off, try the full DirectX 9 End-User Runtime Installer instead of the Web Updater.

Beyond that:

0x80070005 = "Access Denied".

Use something like Process Monitor to figure out what's it's trying to access (file, registry key, etc.) that's being denied; then examine that object to figure out why access is being denied.

  • Full installer also gives the same error. I will try to find what files are being accessed.

windows 7 is a multiple user fail. u must try cmd > net user ||| net user NAME /delete and remove bs users.

after use ICACLS REPAIR to force all unowned files to you.
