Does Installing DirectX 9 Conflict With DirectX 11 ?

Nov 1, 2009

1. Bioshock wants me to install DirextX 9.0c. I was wondering if installing this will mess up DirectX11.

2. I'm using a DX10 video card so the Dx10 features on my DX10 games should work wil DX11 right?

Directx 9 Errors On Windows 7 Directx 11

Jan 30, 2011

I *WAS* having this problem trying to play RIFT Beta, however, a quick search of your forum gave me just the answer that solved my problem. The launcher would start, then I would click play, and a directx update window would open, when I clicked the next button on the installer for directx (the window did not provide a version), I would get the error box telling me to look in my directx.log file, which contained many lines of error code about missing cab files. I then used the link provided in a closed thread on this forum that took me to the Microsoft Directx software page, I downloaded the latest rev of the runtime sdk kit, after 6 minutes of installation, RIFT launched perfectly. I have Win7 home premium 64bit running on a standard shelf version of an hp box with intel i3 core and intel onboard video... Here is the link I used: [URL]

Install Movie Maker 2009 Without Installing Directx 3d 9?

Jun 9, 2012

i needed to edit a short clip, i already have pinnacle video spin, but i use that for longer videos, not for 20, 30 secs clips, i just wanted to add text to the video.

i remember that i find for an alternative to moviemaker time ago because moviemaker can export in 30fps, but ok i am fine with pinnacle, but for short clips i want to use moviemaker.

The problem is that in the intallation, in the list of stuff that it will install with it, it is Directx 3d 9, i already have directx 11, and i dont want to downgrade. i have read in many forum that it doesn't overwrite it because after installation it can be verified in dxdiag, i don't know what happen, but even when dxdiag says that directx 11 is there, there is a noticeable decrease in video performance AFTER the installation of the software that ask for directx9 what i suspect, that directx WAS installed but for some reason dxdiag still shows directx 11.

i dont know WHY moviemaker can't detect directx 11 and to work with that, it's the same unresolved case of the nero 7 on windows 7, that ask for the directx 9 too. and if not, it can't be installed

New DirectX Update

Sep 13, 2009

Just to give everyone a heads up. A new updater for Direct X is available.

9.27.1734 - 9/11/09

I check for updates once a month. Even on 7. So everyone should update

Even though windows 7 has DX11, you should always update the direct x. Older games still require these updates. I see alot of ATI Cat issues solved after installing these aswell.

Directx 10 On Windows 7?

Aug 25, 2011

I am running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit which comes with directx 11. My graphics card (AMD Sapphire HD 4850)supports only upto directx 10.1. I need directx 10.1 or at least directx 10 but I have not been able to find it anywhere. But my primary question is(assuming finding the link is unsuccessful) "Is it possible to extract just the directx 10 files from the windows vista dvd and install it in windows 7?"

ATI DirectX 9 Radians Driver

May 26, 2009

As you are probably aware, ATI has moved it's support for DirectX 9 Radeon's to legacy. All cards older than the Radeon HD generation will now only receive quarterly updates. So that makes Catalyst 9.3 the latest driver for the older generation ATI Radeon's, and 9.6 probably the next.
ATI Reduces Support for Older Graphics Cards - Lab Notes by ExtremeTech

I have a X1950 Pro and would like to try Windows 7 RC soon. As far as I understand, Windows 7 RC comes with a driver for the older generation ATI cards, but without Catalyst Control Center. I also don't know whether the driver can run the full Areo skin. Therefore I would really like ATI to release Windows 7 drivers for the DirectX 9 generation. Although these cards are not fast enough anymore to run todays games, I would think that they are fully capable to run Windows 7 and all its eye candy.

So the next Catalyst release that we can expect for DirectX 9 Radeon's is probably 9.6. However, I have no idea whether these will also include Windows 7 drivers. I contacted AMD about this issue and I got the following response:

There are no pre HD card drivers for Windows 7. Perhaps if more people requested this to our feedback crew, this might change. From this answer I still do not get whether we can expect Windows 7 drivers in the future, or not. Anyway, we now know what we (DirectX 9 Radeon's owners) are supposed to do..

DirectX 11 Graphics Card

Aug 16, 2009

Quote: AMD set to release DirectX 11 graphics card

The launch of AMD's DirectX 11 graphics card will coincide with Microsoft's Windows 7 launch in October

Advanced Micro Devices will soon launch a graphics card that supports Microsoft's DirectX 11, which aims to make graphics in Windows 7 seem smoother and more realistic.

The release of AMD's first DirectX 11 graphics card would coincide with the launch of Microsoft's upcoming Windows 7, AMD spokesman John Taylor said on Thursday.

The DirectX 11 graphics card will belong to the ATI Radeon line, but Taylor declined further comment on product details or pricing.

The graphics card maker has been demonstrating an ATI Radeon graphics card with DirectX 11 support since June, but has not made a specific product announcement yet.

Microsoft's upcoming Windows 7 has built-in support for new DirectX 11 tools, but there is no hardware available yet that supports those tools. With the new card, AMD will beat rival Nvidia to market.

Nvidia has also said it would support DirectX 11, but has not yet made a product announcement. Intel, which mostly offers integrated graphics on chipsets, in June released updated graphics drivers for Windows 7, but offered support for only DirectX 10.

The DirectX 11 tools include a set of APIs for realistic images and better sound when playing games or watching movies. For example, game developers will be able to create smoother and realistic images in a game through better three-dimension modelling.

Most of the discrete graphics cards support existing DirectX 10 and 10.1 tools, which are built into Windows Vista.

DirectX 11 tools are also designed to help Windows 7 recognize multicore systems to improve performance of graphics and other applications.

A feature called "Compute Shader" harnesses the parallel processing capabilities of GPUs (graphics processing units) to improve gaming on PCs. These improvements could make games more realistic through faster frame rates.

The tools also help break up multiple tasks effectively over existing CPU and GPU cores. For example, DirectX 11 will enable video conversion on the fly simply by dragging and dropping video from PCs to portable devices. Read more at the forums...

DirectX 10 Graphics Card In Win 7

Oct 14, 2009

As I understand it, Windows 7 includes DX11, which is backward compatible with DX10 cards (which is what I have - 8600GTS). However, I began to wonder as to whether or not the new DX11 could be causing the unresolved issues with crappy video quality as compared to the same exact video being run in XP (with previous DX version, I believe it's 9).

No matter what codecs I install/uninstall, the video just looks worse in quality on Windows 7 than it does in XP. Does anything think this could possibly be a DX issue? If so, is there anything I can do about this?
