When i try play TMI on the DVD i get this:
eredte.png
translation: autorun.exe - System Error.
The program can't start because d3dx9_41.dll is missing on your computer.
Try to install the progam again to solve this problem.

Can someone please help me?

    Oof, looks like a bad one. Look, it even garbled all the text in the box.

    When I had a DirectX issue, I downloaded the DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer & ran it.

    Updated the DirectX & I was good to go.

    It links to a page in microsoft.com, by the way. Therefore, it's almost certainly unsafe. I take no responsibilities for it ruining your computer. Blame Bill & his cronies.

    Cheers!

    Danish is so cute. "Ikke" means "not"? That's what Berliners say for "I".

    And "hej" means "hi" (Spoken in the same way!)

    Aber Deutsch ist ...... also cute?(I am not very good at German) "bekomme" means "get", but in English, "become" means another thing:rolleyes:

    I can't believe I've lived long enough to read someone calling German "cute".

    They say hi, you shit your pants & scream "I didn't do anything, don't kill me!"

    For the love of Gawd, butterfly - a little, lovable insect that little girls draw - is called a Schmetterling over there. It sounds like they're referring to a machine gun!

    I wish I knew how to speak German... too bad there aren't many German cartoons around, so I guess I'll never learn. :(

    Cheers!

    Here's a good place to start.

    Oi, thanks.

    Dear Lard, the things they called each other in the intro.

    But I need something with subtitles, so I can start making out small, common words at first & expand from there.

    Cheers!

    I realise German has a lot of "hard" sounds, but I think it can also sound very soft and musical and I love hearing opera in German. Especially Die Zauberflöte, but I guess you it's hard to beat a childhood favourite.

    (Ein Bösewicht.... Ein Bööööösewicht entfloh mit ihr.)

    Er, anyways. People tend to say it's aggressive and then they yell "Ich liebe dich" and they're all "see, it sounds aggressive!". Well duh, it does if you're yelling it >.>

    My point being, I can see how it's more consonant-heavy than for instance Italian, but I don't think that makes it any less beautiful to listen to.
