It does not give me any specific errors it just says it cannot run. I'm using windows XP Media Edition with the service pack 2 or 3 can't remember which one. Pretty sure its service pack 3 though. Anyone knows what the problem is?
Have you installed SlimDX?

You'll also need the .NET framework.

Will Net Framework 3.5 sp1 will work? Because I found two versions of Net Framework 2.0 and 3.5 sp1. I want to make sure I'm getting the right thing.

Get the latest .NET you can and SlimDX. SlimDX fixed the "won't run without any specific reason" problem for a lot of us. :P

Still having problems with it. I installed SlimDX that didn't work, I just found out that I had the latest version of .Net Framework, so, I don't know what the problem could be. I have SlimDX March 09 Redistributable. Is that the right version? By the way I'm sorry if I'm acting like an idiot.

Well, if you poke around in your control panel, you'll find what service pack you're on... That could be a start.

Did you download a pre-compiled version? If so, from where?

Did you compile it yourself and possibly have an error?

Kappes Buur yea that one worked for me. I downloaded the march 2009 version of SlimDX on their website. It was on an installer. I guess I downloaded the wrong thing somehow. Anyway, thanks fellas you have been a real help.
