And just in case you guys didn't check the page out, you need a DX10 card to install this. Let us know if this works though...

as such microsoft hasnt released directx 10 for xp...and it never will also, i think..directx 10 was meant to be vista only...these are modded versions of the driver, and should be tried with caution...

I guess this is another hacked vista driver for XP.
Since the GPU always supports DX 10, weather or not the OS supports it, I guess this gives a way to still send DirectX 10 instructions to the GPU. I suppose a similar thing is possible on linux too.

But as always, these are not reliable.

ofcourse dx 10 supported card is needed.
but is it not enough it gives the capability to xp to run pure dx 10 games?
who not have vista.
