DirectX 9.0b not installing

Posted: 10-30-2003, 05:55 PM
Hey,
Everytime I try installing DirectX 9.0b for Halo, it
always says that the program has not passed Windows Logo
and will not be installed. Then it says to contact the
system administrator. The weird thing is, I am the system
administrator, lol. I tried downloading it off of the
microsoft website but it gives me the same error.

This has been posted many times, and the source is the
microsoft.public.directx.misc newsgroup, which supports DirectX. This
newsgroup supports games on
Windows XP.
=====
I took this from a post in the microsoft.public.directx.misc - From Mike
Gamble[MS]

I would suggest trying this:

"This is a common problem. You can try the workaround below. If they do
not work, please send %windir%\directx.log.

1) Make sure your cryptography services are enabled. To do this, go to my
computer | manage | services and applications | services. Then go to
cryptography services properties and make sure the service is started and
startup type is set to automatic.
2) If you are running Windows on a FAT32 drive, run scandisk.
3) Try the resolution steps in
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;326815
4) Try the resolution steps in
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;813442
5) Remove temporary files in %temp% and (if installing end-user runtime)
%windir%\system32\directx\websetup
"
