can't download DirectX End User Runtime

2727 Views 2 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  sueparadise
Forgive me if I don't use the right terminology. I have DirectX 9.0c installed and want to check for updates. I tried to download End User Runtime but it failed - something about a cabinet file which I didn't understand!
Can anyone help me (using really simple instructions?) Thanks...

Hi sueparadise,

A corrupt cabinet file could of been caused by a drop in your internet connection ending the download pre-maturely.
Try downloading the DirectX setup again.

Could also try a second download location if it happens again.

Thanks to both of you, but I have tried it three times now, same answer every time. I am downloading from Microsoft itself but will try another download location.
