I'm happy with the performance I'm able to get, but I want to benefit from the performance boost of using direct x 9 over direct x 10 in the crysis demo and see how it goes. From what I have seen there are no options in my card settings, and the game offers me no options to choose which mode to run in.

Anyone have an idea how I can disable DX10?

Thanks.

Click Start, then click on Games. When the games explorer opens up, you will see Crysis Demo Icon, right click and select, Play with Direct X 9

Wow. So simple, yet I never use the game explorer so i never would have figured it out. Thanks!

Create a desktop icon if you like, you can also right click on the desktop icon and get the same options without having to go to the games explorer each time.

set the target for the shortcut to crysis to read "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis SP Demo\Bin64\crysis.exe" -dx9
