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.
