The Walking Dead bad image

Hello,
Please help! I've heard this game is amazing and I'd really like to play it. I have windows 8 and downloaded the Walking Dead from Steam. When I click play, I get two error messages.
The first says

dxsetup.exe - bad image
c\windows\system32\xaudio2_4.dll is either not designed to run on windowns or it contains an error. Try installing the program again.....

The second says
WalkingDead101.exe-bad image
c:\windows\system32\d3dx9_41.dll is either not designed to run on windows or it contains an error. Try installing....

I have been trying to get the Walking Dead to work for over a week. I've downloaded it twice. I updated my direct x, I've tried the compatibility windows98/me thing. I've downloaded the dll files and replaced them in the walking dead and system32 folders. I continue to get the error messages. I must be doing something wrong...? Please direct me to the right fix for this. Thank you.
