Yes and smoother.
DirectX is not about your operating system but it's about video card you have. Video cards available today support DirectX 11 and as far as you have drivers for such video card your will support DirectX. Make sure that you update DirectX.
You do not need to download DirectX 6.1. All versions of Windows from Windows 98 SE on up include DirecTX 6.1 or newer. If you have Windows 95, you should download DirectX 8.0a, available at the link below.
There is no need to download DirectX 3. Versions of DirectX up to DirectX 9 are backwards-compatible. So if you have one version, you can use games and programs that require a previous version. Besides, the DirectX 3 installerwasmeant to be used only on Windows 95, and would probably cause problems if installed on later versions.
DirectX 9.0c is not available for Windows 7; to actually install DirectX 9.0c, you would have to downgrade to Windows XP (any edition). In order to play games which require DirectX 9.0c without downgrading your installation of Windows, you must upgrade to DirectX 10.1 or later. DirectX 10.0 (initially included in Windows 7) did not include support for DirectX 9.0c, a decision that Microsoft ultimately repealed when DirectX 10.1 was released.
One can downlaod DirectX 10 from the following websites: Microsoft website, DirectX-10, Qt Centre, PC Games Hardware, Softtonic, Kioskea, Toms Hardware, Tech Spot, to name a few.
No. The hardware in the card only supports DirectX 6 interfaces. You can use it with later versions of DirectX, but games that rely on hardware rendering of newer versions will probably not work.
No, games made with GM require DirectX, which is proprietary to Microsoft, and their products.
DirectX 10 is the newest standard.
download and install direct x 9 -_-
DirectX 8.1 is old and unsupported. You would be better served by upgrading your directX.
There is no need to download DirectX for Vista. it already bundles the latest version of DirectX.
