To check DX version: - Go to Start => Run => dxdiag. This will tell you the highest DX on the computer, however, this may be higher than what your GPU can actually run. Which version of DirectX is on your computer? My Computer System One Manufacturer/Model HP-Pavilion m9280.uk-a CPU 2.30 gigahertz AMD Phenom 9600 Quad-Core Motherboard ASUSTek Computer INC.

Oatyboy Member Nov 26, 2011 #3 So does that mean whatever version of windows I am running can have direct x 10/11? I have not got windows vista business vista yet but i am planning to. My GPU will hopefully be the 5450 ati radeon graphics card and it is direct x 11 compatible. My Computer System One
