I already have the correct DirectX version 9.0c which I came with Brother in Arms on my hard drive. I have no problems installing any other games. I rang the take 2 tech support. they took my details, said my specs were fine and said they would e-mail me some solutions. They didn't. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a solution?

    :blackeye: (I think these directions only apply to Windows XP)

    DirectX 9.0c gives error "A cabinet file is necessary for installation and cannot be trusted." ERROR during installation. This problem happens in most cases due to system corruption or users disabling their cryptography services. Please try the following steps to see if it resolves the issue.

    1: Make sure your cryptography services are enabled. To do this, go to my computer | manage | services and applications | services. Then go to cryptography services properties and make sure the service is started and startup type is set to automatic.

    2: If you are running Windows on a FAT32 drive, run scandisk.

    3: Try the resolution steps in http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;813442.

    4: Try the resolution steps in http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;EN-US;822798.

    4: Remove temporary files in %temp% and (if installing end-user runtime)
    %windir%\system32\directx\websetup Error
