still haven't solved my directx problem..

I posted earlier that, strangely enough, on my computer I have directx
version 5 installed. Everyone keeps telling me that XP has to have
like version 8 or so. But I run the directx diagnostic tool, and it
shows the most of the files I have are in fact version 5. Here's a
sample of some of the files I have installed:

So if XP has to have a later version, why is it showing this? Plus,
like I've stated earlier, I've tried installing dx 9 several times,
but it never updates the files. WHat's going on??
