First, just try a clean boot before running the game: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

That is a Windows system file so it is possible it has become corrupt, if that is the case, running System File Checker could fix that: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

It is probable that the file is a DirectX component, in which case right clicking and running the DXSETUP as an Administrator from the game install location will repair/replace that file.

Do let us know your results, thanks.
