   No.  This is NOT a case of yolu installing Windows XP from scratch nor    
   deploying WinXP in an evironment.  You are discussing updating a    
   sub-component of WinXP (that happens to exist in multiple OS versions )  and    
   thus  m.p.windowsxp.setup_deployment   is not a valid news group.

   That doesn't make it correct to post to all of them and you failed to even    
   post in the  m.p.directx.* hierarchy.  If you are going to discuss DirectX    
   under XP the look under m.p.directx.* for an appropriate news group.

   That's a moot point.
