At first I had the cabinet problem (link 1 there), then I solved it ( i think ) with the Cryptographic Services solution posted by Wilhelmus. Now when i go to the microsoft website to d/l & install DirectX 9.0c i get a new error msg come up:

The software you are installing has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows XP.
This software will not be installed. Contact your system administrator.
I don't have a clue what to do now.
Thanks
ps I use Firefox not IE if that makes a difference! Is there any way of getting SP2 using Firefox? I heard that installs directx for you.

Hi.
At first, do this: 1. Open System in Control Panel. 2. On the Hardware tab, click Driver Signing. 3. Under File signature verification, click: "Ignore" to allow all device drivers to be installed on this computer, regardless of whether they have a digital signature.
