Direct X 9.0B not passing logo testing/install failing

[Joey B]

Currently running direct x 8.1 (had to do a system
restore because of other issues and that's my default
version), and when I try to install directx 9, when it
begins to copy the files, it stops, tells me it hasn't
passed logo testing, and that setup will not continue.
I've seen this in cases where I'm installing device
drivers, but there has always been the option
of "continue anyway", but in the case of the directx 9
install, I get no such option, and the install fails.
Anyone know how to fix this?

Here are a few solutions for the DirectX 9 "Logo Testing"
error,
as well as other errors when trying to install patches or
updates:

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:

Good luck!
