Dirt 3 - Complete Edition doesn't start

Recommended Posts

I write this post because when i try to launch dirt 3 this doesn't starts.. if i try by the main file in C: an error window go out and tell "OpenAL32.dll doesn't exist in your computer".
I don't know what to do, thanks for reading.

Yes i tried, but without any result, can you help me?
I believe OpenAL is an audio codec.
Google search immediately finds this on another game

And straight from the OpenAL website
http://www.openal.org/downloads/
The game runs perfectly for me on Win7, it seems like sometimes it either doesn't self install, or doesn't install correctly.

Install the OpenAL, like @JZStudios pointed out ( download from website he posted ), and game will work / start. It's a common issue with DiRT 3 Complete Edition. The same happened to me, back in the day...
