unable to open files, strange "DirecX 7" error

[kamanana]

Hello:

I just downloaded BS Player 0.86 bulid 495, however the player will not play any file I try to open. I have tried playing a "wmv", "avi", and even "MP3" file yet it won't open any of them, and I get an error message that says "this version requires DirecX 7". I don't understand why this is happening, especially because I have been able to play these filesin other Media Players which I have. Does anybody know why this is happening and what I can do to solve the problem? Thanks!

May
