*BtS*$y$t£M=M= 0 Posted August 13, 2004 Direct x is just a driver program/software, any graphics card can run on direct x 9 u just have to download the latest drivers for ur Graphics card that make it Direct x 9 compatible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Fates 63 Posted August 13, 2004 Direct x is just a driver program/software, any graphics card can run on direct x 9 u just have to download the latest drivers for ur Graphics card that make it Direct x 9 compatible. The Key is RUN WITH DirectX because they are suppose to be backwards compatible. However, the purpose of DirectX 9.0 is to take advantage of features that todays video cards offer, as well provide new code for videocard manufactures to design new features around. <C> Fates Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
