You need another version of Direct X - see the knowledge base.

 

Or you have installed new weapons with the wrong weapons editor.

Hmmmm....Its been a while but IIRC that error message usually results from a mismatch between patches and the weapons pack? I always patch up then install the latest weapons pack as the last step.

Windows itself has been updated a lot since WOV came out initially - so it would have worked back then - but have never tested an unpatched version since.

Reinstall the Service pack and patch only (in the correct order) then try it.
