directx error

hi all hopefully im putting this in the right place.

ive been trying to update directx for a couple days now with not much success, originally when installing it failed and indicated an issue with cryptographic service and or corrupt cab file, i download full setup from Microsoft, it installed fine however today i tried to install mafi 2 and when it got to install DX it failed again and pointed me at the install logs, problem is i cant make head nor tail of them can anyone here help decipher them for me


ive attached dxdiags, dxerror.log, directx.log

yep done that
crypto service has been running all the time

yep all up to date

Is this a cross post of the Vista Forums issue, or is this another problem? Thanks!

In relation to this, as we can see from the dxerror.log, this is a corruption of the web installer cache. If necessary, we can clean this out, but first: Can you please ignore the error you received during the install of your game, and just see if the game works?

Thanks!

the game runs fine

i cant seem to find the directx folder

ok search found a the directx folder inside another folder called syswow64 is this the same folder u are reffering to

Please show Hidden Files and Folders: Hidden Files and Folders - Show or Hide

Then try again. Make sure not to delete the DirectX folder, but the DirectX\WebSetup folder. It should be located in System32, but if it is still not visible, delete the one (remember - WebSetup only) from SysWOW64.

Turn off Hidden files when done.
