kinahanglan installan ug directX9 ang windows vista para maka-play ka sa imong directX9 games... i think, mao ra na ang cause sa imong problem.

awts u cant revert back to dx9 at windows vista, dx10 is updated dx9 but with new support for dx10 Video cards nd other features.

incompatibility issue with inno3d vcards i think...

murag mao siguro bro AMD, ikaduha nani nako ilis na VIDEO. ako pman g email Inno3d if naa issues ani ako VC, if naa gni palit lang ko 8600gt.

yes you can... because dx9 and dx10 are not one... they are totally different environment... dx10 is not just an upgrade of dx9... just try downloading dx9 and install it in your system... if it does not work, then i'm wrong...

you still need a directx 10 card to utilize the directx 10 in windows vista... if you don't have it, or your card is dx9, then you need to install dx9 in your windows vista... to run games properly.
