    I have a new computer (dxdiag below). When I run launcher got error (0xc000007b), but the game (pa.exe) starts normally. I reinstalled directx (directx_Jun2010_redist including), framework, Visual C ++, downloaded some dll files. Perform tests with chkdsk / r and chkdsk / f. But nothing helped.
    PS Problem take place with launcher one more game.

    Congrats on the new computer. Try install/ reinstall .net framework.

    Edit: I can't read sorry.

    Try updating drivers from you motherboard manufacture's website. Are you running your SSDs in AHCI or IDE mode? If you changed them to AHCI after windows was installed, it could cause issues. If you are familiar with BIOS screens, snoop around for any obvious issues, especially for incorrect voltage settings. Finally, it may be worth checking your RAM with Memtest86+ to see if it is faulty (though do this after checking the BIOS if you feel comfortable with it).

    I take it means that it occurs with other games as well?

    This error is just mean incorrect DLL, but in case of PA/Coherent it's almost always one certain D3D DLL.
    So you can try to solve it using following instruction:

    PS: Keep in mind that just usage of DXSETUP wouldn't remove "broken" files and you can only fix this problem manually.

    There also other option if advice above won't help. This would mean some other DLL is corrupted so it's will be time to load PA.exe and CoherentUI_Host.exe using Dependency Walker:
    http://www.dependencywalker.com/

    This tool would show which library failed to load.

    Nothing helped. I solved this by Windows reinstallation and clean installing all C++.
