Problem:
You are launching your dolphin emulator and get this message: "Failed to load plugin Plugins\Plugin_VideoDX9.dll - unknown error".
Solution:
You will have to update your DirectX in order for the plugins to load normally. Either from the
DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer which will only download what is missing or with the
DirectX End-User Runtimes which downloads the full package.

What if you're having this problem on vista?
Vista has DX10, ya know.

Vista has DX10 which is newer than DX9 however Vista uses both DX9 and DX10 and both keep getting updates every 2-3 months, the latest update by the moment of this post was November 2008 so you should update it anyway.
Note:
In case the links in this post dont work you should try using a searching engine like google for "DirectX Runtimes August 2009" or newer if you can find it (the SDK isnt needed). Or look in the newest posts in this thread in case someone posted a link to them.
