Can't upgrade DirectX 6 (4.06.0000.0318)

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I am trying to upgrade a laptop with DirectX 6 running Windows XP Pro SP2..
I validated and then download DirectX 9.0c. After the install was complete
I ran the DXDIAG utility and it showed that version 6 (4.06.0000.0318) was
still installed. Any fix?
