Majikoi S Startup

[wrathof54000 10]

I recently downloaded Majikoi S, but when I try to run the game, the game doesn't pop up - no application, no error message nothing. Instead, after investigating with task manager, I noticed that a background process called NeXAS (32 bit) appeared. I had seen that someone in the past had a similar problem and they downloaded a k-lite codec pack, which fixed it for them, but even after downloading the pack the game still doesn't appear for me. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might fix it? I just finished the first game and would really like to be able to play the sequel.
