There seems to be quite many things that can cause this, you can try to 
reinstall driectx and .net frameworks, just see to install the right 
version, don't use a 32bit version of the packages on your 64bit 
microsoft windows installation.

There is always the option of upgrading, go and visit 
https://distrowatch.com and install the flavor you thinks fit your best.
