DINPUT8.dll missing
I can’t download newer versions of Adobe Flash Player because DINPUT8.dll is missing from my Windows 7 PC.
I am using Microsoft DirectX version 11 which is 2 visions above what I can find on the Microsoft website so I can’t re-install it from there.
Version 11 seems to have come from my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 graphics card. I have downloaded the latest drivers but the DINPUT8.dll file is still missing.
What can I do?

Do you have a split personality ?



Thanks for the link. I haven't seen that before. I tried to install the 11.1 update but I got a message that I already have it so nothing downloaded.
Can I remove Direct X without harming the PC and then installing it again?
