However, using google :

Good Luck

Just to let you know it was a corrupt DX install. Heres how he replied.

I started getting errors after installing/un-installing Messiah (Shiny/Interplay). That game doesn't work in XP at all. Although I didn't install the DirectX7 that came on the install CD, it's possible it did some funny business.
