Hmmmm, HL2 should have recognized the prob when you tried to install, and yeah, I know, it takes forever.

Anyhow, if you're having a prob getting DX9 to work, dwnld the developers copy of DX9, then install from your HDD, many times files get pooched in the dwnld/web-install from M$. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9930EFA6-9F7B-4C8A-AEA2-97DD6AB307A2&displaylang=en

Now, if you have a legit copy of XP, there will be no probs getting that file. If you don't, and that's the prob in the first place, you're on your own.
