Answer 1

Try uninstalling both Warcraft and DirectX. Then, go to Microsoft and reinstall DirectX. Here's the link:

Once you've done that, install Warcraft, again. Sounds like a file didn't install properly the first time and installing Warcraft AFTER DirectX might work.

Did you try doing the above? You might also want to try this:

1. UNINSTALL Warcraft.

2. RESTORE your pc to a date earlier than when you installed Warcraft.

3. Go to INTERNET OPTIONS. Under TEMPORARY FILES, click on Delete Cookies and Delete Files.

4. Go to System Tools, Disk Clean-Up and Disk Fragmenter. Follow prompts.

5. Reinstall DirectX from Microsoft (make sure to install the latest DirectX version BEFORE you install Warcraft).

6. Reinstall Warcraft

See if doing all that helps.

Good luck!

Answer 2

well... you told us the answer yourself. Reenable the Cryptographic Service! Go to Start > Run > Type "services.msc" (without quotes) > Find the service named Cryptographic Service > Right Click > Properties > Set it to Automatic or Manual OR Start > Run > Type "msconfig" (without quotes) > Services tab > Make sure the Cryptographic services is ticked.

(well, who told you to disable Cryptographic service anyway? It should be set to at least manual)
