I had exact same problem about 6 months ago. Cant remember how I sorted it but a search on the web seems to indicate that you should try reinstalling the DirectX Runtime from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/e...DR_111SXX02959. I might have actually done a restore to before installing the game and then re-installed the game. Hope you solve it. Its bl"£$ annoying when things like this happen - you just wanna get on with the game!

D3DCOMPILER_43.dll are caused by an issue by Microsoft DirectX. Since DirectX is utilized by most Windows based games and advanced graphics programs, D3DCOMPILER_43.dll errors usually show up only when using these programs.

1) Restart your PC if you haven't
- The D3DCOMPILER_43.dll could clear up completely after a restart

2) Install the latest version of Microsoft DirectX

3) If the latest DirectX version from Microsoft doesn't fix the d3dcompiler_43.dll error, look for a DirectX installation program on your game DVD or CD. Usually, if a game utilizes DirectX, the software developers will include a copy of DirectX on the installation disc.

4) Uninstall the game or software program and then reinstall it again. Something might have happened to the files in the program that work with d3dcompiler_43.dll and a reinstall could do it.

5) Update the drivers for your video card. While it's not the most common solution, in some situations updating the drivers for the video card in your computer could correct this DirectX issue.

If it the D3DCOMPILER_43.dll error keeps popping up, I don't know what to do..
