Google tells me it's an "common" issue with tons of solutions.

Try to re-install DirectX from the files within your Call of Duty Ghosts folder! (See below for the path to that, but don't follow the steps until you've tried this)

From Steam Forum:

Here is a possible resolution that I just tested on a system that was experiencing it:
1. Go to your Call of Duty: Ghosts directory, by default located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Call of Duty Ghosts.

2. Inside the game directory go down to _CommonRedist\DirectX\Jun2010.

3. Order the files by type and select all .cab archive files and copy these files to a temporary directory on your desktop.

4. With software like 7-Zip/WinRar, extract all the files within this directory. Be sure to not extract them in new directories.

5. Remove the .cab archive files and move all the remaining files to C:\Windows\System32. Confirm overwriting files when asked. You can remove the directory from your desktop.

PS: don't move the cab files, just copy them
I can't tell you more than what was posted on the steam forum.

Did you try to launch the DXSetup.exe BEFORE you started this?
