Can you verify whether the Cryptographic Services are running using the links pasted by an earlier poster above?

And I don't think there's a need for update since Windows 7 comes with DX11 which is backward-compatible with DX9 and DX10 graphics cards.

The cryptographic services are running.

But the software im trying to install requires me to do so. If not i cant use certain functions. I have a problem trying to install adobe flash player also.
