I recently downloaded the direct x december 2006 sdk, which came with dx 10 stuff too. Although, I can't run the dx10 stuff b/c apparently you need Vista. It also said something about a display driver, and I'm guessing that's my video card. Well, I recenly got an Nvidia Geforce 7900 GT, and I've heard that the only one that supports directx 10 is the 8800, so does this mean that I will have to get another video card to run dx 10 stuff? Or will it just emulate it or something?
