Direct X9.0b

[Dave]

Microsoft.com said that DX 9.0b is compatible with
Windows XP. It flat out lied. I d-loaded it directly from
the site. My computer has NO viruses. When I tried to
instal it, it said "The software you are installing has
not passed the Windows Logo testing to verify its
compatibility with Windows XP. The software will not be
installed. Contact your system administrator". Please
tell me why microsoft sucks so bad.

Gee milions of others havent the problem!Try doing some
simple investigating like open event viewer,see why it
had conflicts,have you ran anti-virus?
Microsoft lied to us,huh...

Gee, or you could actualy help me. Why would you ask me
if I've ran an anti-virus if I've already told you that
it doesn't have any viruses (in caps too)? Obviously YES
I HAVE!

"Microsoft lied to us,huh..."
Sorry if I offended the MIGHTY MICROSOFT. How dare I
question it's authority. If I'm having a problem that
other people aren't having then it CANT BE THEIR FAULT. I
just must have broke it or somethin huh?

Turn off anti-virus programs during the install part. A/V may block access
to important files during 9.0b update.

Hi Dave! :-)

You possibly disabled the Cryptography service by "tweaking"
XP using well intended but bad advice from a site or magazine.

1. Click Start / Control Panel / Administrative Tools / Services
Scroll down to "Cryptographic Services", double click it and
change Startup type to: Automatic and click the "Start" button.

2. If the problem persists, go to c:\windows\system32 and rename
the catroot2 directory to catrootold. Catroot2 might be too full.

3. Repairing Windows is our final option. Boot from your Windows
CD (you may have to press F12 while starting up, or change the
bootup order in your BIOS) and then follow the instructions at:
http://michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm Good luck! :-)

Hi Bill,

There's really no other method I'm aware of that will satisfy
your request, however feel free to inquire in the directx news
groups and then share with us which solution finally works. :-)
