DirectX can be found at
www.microsoft.com/directx

You must be logged on as an Administrator or a User with Admin Rights in
order to install this application.

As for the Sidewinder, the drivers are built into XP... go to the Control
Panel, click on Game Controllers, connect joystick to PC and then use the
AutoDetect feature.
