twaydb Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 I'm installing DirectX 9.0b during the svcpack.inf portion of the Win XP install and have run into a problem with the Windows Critical Update KB839643 (DirectX 9.0 Security Update). I receive the error: "Setup cannot continue because one or more pre-requisites required to install KB839643 failed. For More details check the Log File C:\WINDOWS\KB839643.log"The log file reads:[KB839643.log]0.078: ================================================================================0.078: 2004/07/14 10:56:29.910 (local)0.078: c:\879a5a52ab06d5f7e22ec66877046ec4\sp2\update\update.exe (version 5.4.15.0)0.078: Service Pack started with following command line: 0.110: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectX\Version is Not Equal To Specified Value 0.110: Condition Check for Line 1 of PreRequisite returned FALSE 0.125: ReadStringFromInf: SetupGetLineText failed: 0xe00001020.125: KB839643 Setup encountered an error: Setup cannot continue because one or more pre-requisites required to install KB839643 failed.

For More details check the Log File C:\WINDOWS\KB839643.logI'm installing the patch in the RunOnce portion of the install along with other hotfixes that won't process in the svcpack.inf portion. Attempts to install the update via Windows Update gives me a "Failed to update and must close Windows Update" error window, which details lead me to believe that I have the incorrect version of "update.exe" or something?Anyone else run into this problem? Any ideas for a fix? Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alanoll Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 You have the express installer, not the full one. Refer to the Hotfixes thread, and get it through the link there (make sure for the correct version of DX that you're installing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
