I have been reading and found out that Directx10 is not backward compatible
with Directx 9.0c or earlier. (see this article:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvist...ty/gaming.mspx) However I have
aslo read that a version 9L, for compatibility with older games software, re:
pre-vista DX10, will be included with the Vista release. Is this not
included with the RC1 build? Can we download a version to test out? Wthout
Open GL support or DirectX support for older games, we cannot properly test
out our older software in Vista. I just want to make sure that i am not
jumping the gun when i purchase my new computer or Vista upgrade this January.
Thanks
