Windows XP Professional x64 compatibility   

I can't get a number of software programs to install on my computer due to 
32/64 bit compatibility issues. I recently purchased Madden 08 for the PC, 
and when I try and install it I get an error prompt saying that DirectX 9.0 
or higher is required, and I already definitely have DX9+. Can anyone help me 
fix this issue? Thanks.
