Corpsious

I try to install dx9.0b but the accursed logo testing window pops up
and tells me that its not going to install dx. I have tried renaming
catroot2 to no avail.
 
What is the exact error message? Sounds like you might be getting the
driver warning that says your video card driver is not digitally signed, you
can choose OK and usually install from there.
 
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

4) Try the resolution steps in
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;813442
5) Remove temporary files in %temp% and (if installing end-user runtime)
%windir%\system32\directx\websetup
"
