Yep, its long known that there will be no dx10 for WinXP

Where's DirectX 9.0L?
I thought although we won't have DX10 on XP, but at least we would have WGF... sad.gif

That is for Window Vista as well IIRC. DX10 is not backward compatible with non dx10 hardware, so 9.0L is to make sure vista runs with current dx9 video card or older.

Could it be possible that it's a limitation with Windows XP? Making it incompatible with DX10? unsure.gif

Probably. at least thats what they say. Window Vista was build ground up.
