When you install DX, it installs all DX versions 9/10/10.1/11 etc. Then it is up to the OS to decide what the OS can handle, eg. XP DX 9 Vista 10/10.1, 11 WIN 7.
dx7-9 are all in the same runtime. dx10 and 11 are a seperate.
If your GPU is DirectX 11 compatible, it will use 11, if it's 10 compatible only, it will use 10, even though you have 11 installed.

Almost. When I google for the directX update site, and find it (that's what I did when I updated it manually when updated DirX 9.0c was needed for SBP) and then launch the updater there, will it then automtaically update both the 10-11 package, and also the 9-and-below package, yes? Sop that any games of more modern klind that needs an updated 9.0c will be satisfied?
I am currently with an old system still XP 32 bit and DirX.90c graphics. But the new will be Win7 64 Bit and a DirX.11 compatible GFX board. So, so far I never needed to bother for having to parallel DirectX installations. Thus my confusion.
