Third party software isn't necessary for that purpose.
Windows provides a DirectX Diagnostic which will report DorectX version
as well as test its basic operation and report drivers. Once the tests
have been run it can even generate a log file which is convenient for a
hard copy printout or copying via the Windows clipboard should you want
to transmit those details of your configuration and/or the test results
through Email, forum posts or newsgroup articles.
Just type "dxdiag" at in the "Run" dialog (available through the taskbar
"Start" button's context menu).
If you are referring to my link, (and I'm not getting irritated, just
making a note), the link is to a page that explains in layman terms how
to use the dxdiag tool. Rather than me type it all in.
