Hello,
I'd like to know how to lower the direct-x level of the whole windows 7 system.
I cant seem to find the place to set it.

And is there any way to boost up the performance of opengl games like Jedi knight academy or can the game be changed to run with direct x in same way just like cs 1.6,
because from since I moved to windows 7, jka hasn't worked as good as with Xp probably because it runs with opengl...
well Im getting alot better processor probably next week and more ram so I'll see how it will do.
