Hey guys,
 
Not seeing much action in these threads, does this mean that no-one here is playing?  I bought the game the other day just to see what it's like and quite enjoyed the initial hour Wink
 
Anyway When I first bought it my CP PC was being built so I installed it on the wifes laptop (which is far from capable of playing games lol).  But....managed to at least kick it off and also set it into DirectX 10 mode.  However upon installing it on my lovely new CP monster, I found that this option is now disabled Confused  Is this disabled across the board or is there something wrong with my DirectX version?  I ran dxdiag and it reported no errors and showed version 10 so am very confused

Load the latest DirectX redistributable from www.softwarepatch.com/windows and it should re-appear
