DirectX 10 and 11 Released for Windows XP

All of the games I have in my library are DX9 compliant. But supposing one were to play a DX11 game on XP, do we really need a DX11 compliant graphics card to play it?

Good point, actually. XP is probably light enough to handle DX11 without needing a compliant card ^^
Although the best games are DX9 compliant I think wouldn't they be?
 
Guys i need your HELP.

Can someone re-upload this file?

I've tried to download it from other sites, but the download link doesn't work anymore.

How do install DirectX 11 for Windows XP?


DirectX 11 is not available for Windows XP, and there is not going to be a official release in the future for XP. But you can do something to get your XP up to Directx 11 levels. First you will need a PC running Vista or Windows 7, and install DirectX 11 Installation files on those computers. You can't download from Microsoft DirectX 11, or Microsoft will just make it look like you are getting the update files, but you actually getting the same old 9c Directx files. Anyway, from those Vista and Windows 7 systems that have a working copy of DirectX 11 on them you will need to look at 2 folders on those systems. One is in the Windows folder called "WinSxS", and contains the libraries, and the other is the "DirectX for Managed Code" folder located in the .NET directory, that also contains the XML libraries. All you really need to do is copy and paste the libraries from the Vista and or Windows 7 folders into the Windows XP SP3 directories. Let us not forget that Vista is also just Windows XP with a Windows 7 theme. So Vista and XP are actually twin systems. And the latest release of DirectX 11 is Vista and Win7 compatible. I have personally done this and it works great, and also the DXDIAG screen shows the Directx 11 installed in the system as well.

above was from my second link , did you even read it?

The THIS in my post was a search page which you can choose among lots of threads discussing this issue.
 
Thank you so much! From your personal view, directx10 on XP slows down the operative system?

With Directx10, the games go faster or slower? I have an old pc with Xp SP3.
 
I do not game, so I could not give you a personal experience of this adaption. All you can do is take an image of what you have now so you can restore the image if anything else gets messed up,:)
 
Ok, give me your personal experience on the whole operative system. Where can you see an improved performance using the directX10?
 
I'm still using DirectX 9.0c (June 2010). Hasn't given me a lick of trouble. I stick to old-school games, so I don't need a newer version.
