This will mostly install updates to the older DirectX 9 runtime which is still included with newer versions (since older games such as yours require it). It will often solve issues similar to yours. Even if it doesn't, it won't hurt.

Click the above link as posted by Corazon and download the DX-9c.
If all components are already installed then you wasted a bit of time.
If components are missing they will be installed.
Installing DX-11 does not install DX-9c.

Installing DirectX 9 will not wipe out DirectX 10 or 11, it just installs any missing files for the older version. I've done it on my Windows 7 x64 PC with no ill effects. A lot of older games prompt to install DirectX 9c during the install, I just click yes and move along.
