So yeah, any more advancement in gaming for XP is not happening."

The DirectX 9 compatibility has been botched starting from DX10, and is not set to get any better. Since I have a lot of DirectX 10 games, I upgraded, and they look pretty good, but…"

Something wrong in your installation.
I also did not notice any significant speed increase on Windows 7…"
