@ Benjamin - thanks - that thread was ambiguous - could have meant 9.0c but no higher as DirectX - I'm taking it I can have latest patched version of Vista and DirectX10 and DBPro will work - excellent

You also need to install DirectX9.0c too - it won't affect your installation of DX10

No, Ben and I often post incorrect information on subjects that have been asked frequently before, just on the off-chance that it screws up someones machine.

Yes, install DX9.0c, then DBPro and away you go.

@ IanM,

Fair comment. Just overly nervous with a new Windows OS! Thanks for your help and speedy responses...
