Well, my laptop sort of got fixed, but when I start c-rpg up it says im missing ''D3dx9_43.dll''.

You have to past the dll file into the correct windows folder, not the crpg folder. I got no idea tho which one that would be, but I remember doing that with another dll at some point and it worked.

I just checked it:

For a 32bit system dll files go into C:\Windows\system32

and for 64bit they belong into C:\Windows\SysWOW64

at least when putting them into the folder where the exe/programm is doesn't work ;)

No, no, no.
Don't paste DLLs into Windows folders. What you need is this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35

Pasting DLLs should be the last resort basically.

Clicking the repair box on the launcher then running it didn't work?

Installing is always the much cleaner option, pasting does work. But if unlucky it might cause complications of whatever kind.
You don't only paste games into your programs folder either, you install them and kind of let the system know that it is there.

It says i already have a good enough directX version.. I guess pasting the file was good enough?

DirectX is more than just a single DLL.
