Re: Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005)

 I'm trying to install my old NFS game on my relatively new PC. When trying to install (from CD), i get an error message, saying that  i need DirectX 9 to be able to play the game. I have DirectX 12 installed, and have tried installing previous versions of DirectX, but none seem to work. 
I've searched on the EA website for a digital download, but the game seems to have vanished and been replaced with the new NFS:MW (Which runs fine on my PC)

Any help is appreciated.

    With all the issues with compatibility on newer Windows versions, including Windows 10, with DX9 errors and such, is it possible that we could start a change.org petition for an HD remaster of this game for widescreen resolutions, better controls with XBOX One gamepads, and Windows 10 compatibility? Then put the game in the Origin store for download? I would really love to see that since this was one of my most beloved games from that era.
