.Net Framework problem and Batman:AA

Ok so I just recently formatted my computer and went to run Batman: AA. At the beginning of the installation process an error pops up saying "unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application." I clicked ok to google up an answer and didn't find one. Meanwhile it continued to try to install and now I get this message:

"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. (blah blah continue or quit). Could not load file or assemble Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D, Version =1.0.2902.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35 or one of it's dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."

I'm assuming this relates to a .Net framework file or something. I'm running Windows XP Pro SP3 and in my Add/Remove Programs I see the following:

.Net Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2
.Net Framework 3.0 Service Pack 2
.Net Framework 3.5 SP 1
Microsoft .Net Framework 4 Client Profile

Know of any resolution to this problem?

    Try reinstalling the latest version of DirectX.

    Batman: AA itself probably doesn't use managed direct X. Install the latest Games For Windows Live client, and if that doesn't work install the latest XNA runtime.

    By chance, do you have the IE9 preview installed? That will mess up GfWL games.

    If not, I would start with a current install of DirectX, as suggested above.
