GPL won't load.........HELP!!!!!!!

Ok,
  I downloaded and installed it twice, but when I try to start the game I get a
missing DLL file error. I have never had any problem loading or running any
Papyrus game on my system. Am I just not getting a full download for some
reason? Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,

I think that you don't have DirectX5 installed. The DLL you mentioned
was DINPUT.DLL, right? (I assume you're running W95). one way to check
if DirectX5 is installed, is via Control panel. DirectX5 has a
GameControler icon,  where DirectX3 has a Joystick icon.
Install Directx5, and GPL should run. (IF your system is up to it of
course)

Cheers!

Remco
