|| Hi upstage,
||
|| Here are a few solutions for the DirectX 9 "Logo Testing" error,
|| as well as other errors when trying to install patches or updates:
||
|| Here's a quick solution to try before reading through the other steps:
|| 1.. Start the Administrative Tools utility in Control Panel.
|| 2.. Double-click Services.
|| 3.. Right-click Cryptographic Services, and then click Properties.
|| 4.. Click Automatic for Startup type, and then click Start.
||
|| If that doesn't work, then grab a soda and get ready for some fun. ;-)
||
|| 1. Try the resolutions in this recently released MS article:
|| http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=822798
||
|| 2. Save and then Open the "DX9 Logo Error" patch on Line 189
|| for WinXP at: http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
||
|| 3. Repairing Windows is our final option. Boot from your Windows
|| CD (you may have to press F12 while starting up, or change the
|| bootup order in your BIOS) and then follow the instructions at:
