Wings of war software.

Me again,I have been trying all evening to install the 'Wings of war' software but am having problems,this is what happens-
I load the disc and it starts to install,then the message comes up 'if prompted to install DirectX click OK' it then says 'Severe' (top lefthand box) with unable to launch\dxsetup.exe (which is dxwebsetup.exe which is already installed).
Just to make sure that I have the current version I went and over wrote it and sure enough it is there,so why is the software saying that it is unable to launch uit ? why is it not picking up the one installed ?

Disregarding this I tried to load it and open the programme,it just goes to a black screen,when I do a 'ctrl/alt/delete' to get out of it,the prog is in sleep mode on the lower toolbar ?

I was expecting Wings of war to install easy peasy now that I have a decent graphics card,but not so,any ideas on how I can get it working properly ?
