DirectX 10 and Vista

My Graphics card is an ATI Radeon X550 and it was support by DirectX 9 but
now with Vista, which comes with DirectX10 it does not support my graphics
card and I get an error that is caused by a file called atiumdag.dll when I
try and play my video games. Please help!

Have you checked the ATI website to be sure you have the latest Vista
Compatible drivers for your card?

Re: DirectX 10 and Vista

Vista only supports Directx10 games if it has a graphics card that supports
Directx10.
