Comment:

Will a graphics card that is built for DirectX 10 be able to run on my OS which is DirectX 9? I know that some features will be disabled or unable to run on the older version of DX9, but could the OS successfully install the hardware with little problems?

Thanks

DX10 video cards can be used on XP machines without any problems.
