I had the same problem as WNA. I downloaded the first update there labelled as being for 'windows xp and sp 1'. It worked on one of the other XP machines we have here, but not on this one. So I scrolled down the page a bit and found the one for direct x version 9 - and now it works! turns out the update towards the top of the page is for dx v. 8 .. !
