Direct-X problem

Demos_sav · Jan 1, 2007

Well, I used Microsoft's program for updating Direct-X automatically. Everything seems to be fine while downloading. When it's time to install this message appears.Is there any way I can fix that or delete the updated files so I can give it one more try?

P.S: I checked the Cryptographic services. They are started.

Start-run-services.msc . Check to see if Cryptographic services is running. If you don't see that option, run Windows Update and make sure you install "Microsoft Base Smart Card Cryptographic Service Provider Package: x86 (KB909520)". Otherwise, I think you might have corrupted something deep in XP that's only fixable by reinstall (but then again, I'm no Alecstar).

And, then again, I'm not always right w/ fixes either... I take guesses @ times, & come out right mostly (when I AM right, that is, & the person turns up fine afterwards)...

I'd say I bat around 33-50% on helping folks in fixes @ best... it's tough to do, this is a complex field. Things that look like 1 thing, might actually be quite another, is what I have found @ times... others not, & I "guess" right.

This field's given me a new respect for folks like Doctors, & car tech/mechanics... it's a LOT like them in many ways, as far as troubleshooting.
