Getting bioshock to work in direct x 10?

[B&W]

Hi I just installed bioshock on my pc but i noticed that the option for dirext x 10 is greyed out so i think its running in dx9.

i have a radeon 4850 and installed the recent driver update.

how do i get it to work in dx10?

You need Vista as your OS it works fine for me under Vista on a 4850 and looks incredible plus the FPS is much better something like 20-25% faster than an 8800GTX so very smooth gamplay.

DX10 Bioshock has better looking water everything else looks similar to DX9 mode.

I just checked dxdiag it says direct x version: 9.0c

So that means you cant get dx10 for xp?

the particle effects, such as the fog are much better too.. you don't get any texture clipping as they're softened

DX10 is only available on Vista.
