Hi!

Why would you do what you've described, rather than simply downloading and installing the proper version of DirectX as instructed?

Exactly

I have carbon, most wanted and underground 2 and none of these have any problems installing. Remember that a lot of brand new games not only require 9c but also the up to date version of it.
