I recently got fed up with Vista, and reinstalled xp on my gaming rig. I found a hack for DX10 and installed and it worked perfectly. I checked DXDIAG and it showed DX10. I ran 3dmark06 with identical setups on both operating systems, and with vista I got a 19,652, and with xp I was getting 13,000 and below.

I cant seem to figure out why this is happening, maybe its the hack dx10........

Of course, it's the hack for DX10. Uninstall it.

yes... I cant uninstall the hack. I am going to have to reformat.

So you think my low scores are result of the DX 10 Hack?
