I would consider using System Restore soon. That would reverse any DirectX trouble.

It's more likely that this is a video problem. Uninstall your video drivers, reboot and reinstall if System Restore fails. Do the same for your sound drivers if that doesn't help.

There is no substitute for backing up your PC. Hard drives are really huge and really cheap these days. Get a spare (internal or external) and start backing up with Acronis True Image, Norton Save and Restore or Paragon Drive Backup - whichever is on sale this week.
