Well you let it install it, I had to do that for FEAR as well. I don't think it affects it, when I run dxdiag, it still says DX10.

You just need to re-install the latest DX9.0c update.

I don't know, but FEAR seems to be running abit slower on vista than on XP for me.

Maybe its because Vista is a resource hog.

elitehacker, its because vista in most games cuts down frames like crazy
