I'm trying to install Civilization IV, but Windows won't let me because Direct X 9c hasn't passed the "Windows Logo testing." I legally own this game, and I can't install it. How do I turned this horse shit off?
Okay, I figured out the problem is with Windows Cryptography Services. Specifically, it stopped, and now refuses to start with an error of "Error 193: 0xc1" anyone know what this is?

Some dll for the service may be corrupt or missing.

Okay, I did that. It just closed after it finished, so I assume it found nothing.

Try microsoft's knowledgebase on this error.
Also, check dependencies for the service.

The only dependency for it is running. Microsoft's knowledgebase offers no real information.

What happens if you reinstall SP2? And is the service set to automatic (Though I assume it would be). Usually when a service won't start sfc fixes it.

It is set to automatic, but it's stopped and won't start.

Make sure none of its dependencies are disabled services. Start them manually just to see what happens. Perhaps it's one of these who refuse to start. Check the event logs for hints, and try to see why that service or its dependencies wouldn't start.

I looked through the logs, and it said the program wasn't a 32bit application. I'm thinking something got corrupted along the way.
