Of course, but i must explain my on my behalf. I'm trying to work with it when it DOES come out for xp it will be called "Direct X 10.5" or "Direct X XP Edition",but so far nothing has worked. I do know the source for the problem though, the reason it says intallation comlete because there is a file missing that went undetected and the setup is mislead that it has been previouly installed. So you have four options download the missing files and place them where should be, restore/reboot your entire system, place your OS CD in the drive and uninstall and reinstall Direct X from a downloaded version, or update to a newer version. Your right though, my mistake, but keep an eye open for for for the versions that I mentioned and I am very sorry if I mislead anyone to believing that this version for xp is a certian thing.
