liamp51 Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 (edited) Hi all, I was wondering if there is any way to have DX10 run on Windows XP. I have all SF2 titles and addon packs merged into one install, but get pretty bad FPS over Hanoi, Haiphong and other areas of North Vietnam. It's quite irritating because SF2V is the only part of the sim that I get really bad FPS on(25 or lower!). I don't think it's possible without upgrading to Win7 which I can't do right now due to it's price. If not, then I guess I'll just have to keep saving my pennies! Thanks! liamp51 EDIT: My system specs: Intel Core 2 Duo 8400 at 3.61Ghz Nvidia GTX 260 896MB memory Windows XP Professional Samsung SyncMaster 2233SW 1920-1080 Res monitor.

xclusiv8 Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Nope! DX10 will never run on WinXP. There are some that claim that you can install some of the files etc but it will never really run. It was not written for XP and it will never be. Quote
Panama Red Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Micro$oft explicity said when they created DX10 that it would only work on Vista or later OS's, not XP. Quote
