Just saw this thread.. and then I saw the error and I didn't see anyone actually solve this.. usually this problem happens when its missing RunTime files...

Example : Green Gandolf posted this picture :



This error means the machine is missing the correct C++ runtime components for your type of system. (x86 or x64).

Installing any or all of the following updates should fix the issue.

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 ( x86 and / or x64 )

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package for (x64)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)


Make sure to run all windows updates and reboot computer then try once more.

Also, reinstall DirectX 9.0c.

This link here is the only one that works with DBPro. I have tried other DirectX links from MS and they failed.

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35

The download file is only about 285K. If you see a different size its probably the wrong DirectX 9. As Pincho is saying, there are bad DirectX downloads out there.

I use MP3s in my game and these commands work :

LOAD MUSIC "mysong.mp3" , 1
PLAY MUSIC 1
STOP MUSIC 1

Setting the Volume doesn't however. Apparently never has.

I use latest 1.077, also seen as u77, DarkBasic pro.

I have both the 2010 C++ runtime files and DirectX9.0C (August 2009) installed on my machine and still get that error

This has been discussed lately and it comes up every few months. Run the volume command twice in a row and it'll glitch out and work as expected. It's just a bug, but running the command twice seems to work.

Make sure to install the other runtimes I meantioned as well. Don't be afraid to install them all. It wont conflict with each other. Also use the directX In the link I supplied, just in case you got the bad one.

NOTE : IF your on a 32 Bit windows, ONLY install the 32 Bit Runtimes.

I had looked for a solution and never found it. Thanks for the info. FINALLY I can change the volume.
