Hi V_R,

Tried to download but got message to say that this download did not apply to my system. Any idea why? Is it for something that may have previously been downloaded?

 

[V_R]

No idea lol. Just saw it on another forum.

Us Win7 users already have DX11.

Edit: You have to validate your sytem with the genuine windows validation system.

Yes for Vista users. But as V_R pointed out, us Windows 7 users already have DirectX 11...

Us Win7 users already have DX11.

I think what is needed is for Nivrip to confirm if he is ising Vista or Windows 7. This is where I think the confusion has come in.....

Nah as he asked i took it as read he on Vista.

Confirming that I was using Vista was all part of the download procedure so I'm still not sure what is going on.

Strange..Not been on Vista I can't even check it out...Have you tried a different download location. ie, not from MS site...What Service Pack are youi uisning with Your Vista install ? That could be the problem.. I know I had something the same with XP and the Service Pack causing havoc..

Niv, don't bother ... DX is mainly a game thing, and they mostly still using DX9

No, the criteria for download was that you must have SP2. And I have.

Niv, don't bother ..

I think that is the definitive answer. Ta Mucks.
