Default D3dx9_38.dll missing with windows 8 PC

Hi,

I'm facing a weird bug, could I humbly ask for your help, please ?
I've got a brand new windows 8 Dell laptop (inspiron series, 64 bits, intel something inside), for my kids' allowed PC recreational activities (videos, gaming, educational stuff, and hopefully interesting the elder one in basical coding).
I downloaded snes9x 1.53, and when running its executable file, I had the error message stating that d3dx9_38.dll was missing.
And yet, running dxdiag, I saw that directX11 was already installed on the machine (you can at least trust Dell to ship laptops with fully installed and working drivers and software), so I can assume that a file related to directX9 ought to be already included in the system, don't you think ?
I then proceeded to downloading that dll file (from here, "download zip file") to snes9x's folder.
To no avail, there was an error message stating that snes9x-x64.exe had an application error (0xc000007b).
And here, frankly, I'm lost.
Would you have an advice, perhaps, please ?
- should I try installing directx9, even though DX11 is already present ? I fear it would wreck havoc in the system
- should I try installing snes8x, with hopes it will work this time ?

Any help will be apprecited.

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
