Is This A Impossible Creatures Error?

I think I got this error at startup after installing Impossible Creatures from a demo disc. Is this an error from the game?

Looks like it's from Windows telling you that the game needs DirectX9 but it can't find it on your computer. If you have DirectX9 properly installed on your computer and the game is properly installed you'll have to look to the game maker for a patch or instructions on how to solve the issue.
