You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else.

Solved my earlier problem.

If you have the same thing, go to this page and download the zip file. Extract the d3dx9_29.dll to the main directory with all your 2142 files (I believe default would be c:\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142 Demo) and then run the program.

If it still doesn't work, copy the .dll file to C:\windows\system32

thats what I had to do.

all you have to do is install the latest directx from microsofts site

it's because you dont have the april 2006 version of directx

Can I just ask whether or not you need to create an account for the demo? If so, does it come with the Veterans Program also or is it not even ranked?

You don't need a real account for the demo, and ther is no veterans programs or ranking in the demo.

Get the retail version and give us more knife fodder

Did you guys even read the first post? Shipbuilder's solution and Superslim's solution were already documented.

Easier version: I had the same problem.
I looked up d3dx9_29.dll on google, and pretty much the first link was a .dll download site (add 'download' after the file name) Download it, unzip it, drag drop into your bf2142 demo folder, and tada, It works.
