Junglejim728 1 Posted December 27, 2011 I just got a new laptop and i really wanted to try the ARMA demo, but for some reason, it won't work. It wont go past the "Installing DirectX for the First Time" pop box after launching the game. I also tried to launch it from inside of the game file, but it says that X3Daudio1_6 is missing from my computer. PLEASE HELP! I tried all of the installing of new DirectX and reinstalling the game, it just won't work. Please get back to me soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SWAT_BigBear 0 Posted December 27, 2011 Make sure the DX download is extracted properly. The installer exe will be in the extracted files. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=77880 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
