DX 10 is 'built-in' to Vista ... you will not be given the choice of installing DX9/8/7/6/ whatsoever. Vista won't let you. :D

Updates are automatically installed, if you left auto-update on.

Vista doesn't actually have DX9 ... it emulates DX9 ... Don't ask for clarification, do some research. ;)

Be happy, Vista has the latetest DX compataility built-in ... :thumb:


[EDIT] open the 'globe' and type ... dxdiag ... press enter.
