Im new to this so go easy... i have just got a game that has the option 2 install in directx9 or 10 during installation ? vista has directx 10 i know but although my graphics card is vista compatible it's not a directx10 card.
Do i install in directx9 im guessing i probably should but ive read of people having problems with this ! also if i download directx 9 will it write over directx10 ?
i read vista only has parts of directx9 as default included ?
Any help would be much appreciated, googling has left me more confused if anything ?

If your graphics card is not dx 10 compatible, then you should install the directx 9 version, or else you wont be able to run the game. When you install DX9 you will still be able to use dx10 later on, no worries.
