    Hi
    I would like to run game vibe to control a buttkicker. But every time it would crash right at the start with the message:

    "System.InvalidOperationException: An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound, Version=1.0.2902.0, Culture=neutral, "

    would you know how to fix this error?

    My system is a win10 64 bit, i7-7700k cpu @4.2Ghz, 16GB

    thank you,

    error message details:
