I was wondering if i was able to disable direct x 10 on my Hp Dv5z laptop. I heard vista and direct x 10 can make games slower and i want to dx10. My laptop has a hd3200 (mid end igp, low end overall gpu) an amd turion x2 @ 2.0 ghz and 3gb ram. And will i see improvements in cod4, combat arms and bio shock??? (on low of course)
