directx 9.0c should be available with any game installation that requires it..
or you can directly download off microsofts website

oHHH DEAR !!!! you are using the first release version of WINXPsp2 which was a beta and it did came with 9.b and 9.c cant be installed over it.... or if you upgrade o winxp sp2 with 9.c you cant as its a beta i gurantee you... but remember one thing you need to install XP AGAIN FORMAT YOUR SYSTEM AND INSTALL A NEW XP SP2 WITH 9.c FINAL VERSION

Yes, you cannot install directx 9c without uninstalling 9b. I don't know why, but I have read this on a lot of forums. Follow the method suggested by Kenshin.
