actually there is a missing file. when you get the error message windows should also tell you the name of the file. if you repost the name of the missing file someone may be able to help you out.
until then you are on your own...

Normally programs install the (DLL?) files that they need.

Hey chanit, That file's part of DirectX 8.0a. If you've not updated your directX, perhaps now's the time? (N.B. Not recommended for win98)

To solve your problem you will have to download & install DirectX 8.0a. Check the link under my name and read the second paragraph under "Crashes". Hope this helps.
