I have Vista Ultimate 64 bit installed on my new laptop and I haven't experienced this problem you're seeing yet. I did learn though that DX9 can coexist with DX10 and would recommend updating your DX9 drivers or installing DX9 if you haven't. This caused me some grief until I did that.
Also when installing ensure you install as administrator. This also caused me numerous headaches. Right click and select install as administrator.
In case you're wondering and questioning this I did also. But it is true, DX10 and DX9 can and will coexist in Vista. This has since made games that were previously unplayable (like SH3) on my new laptop playable again and without crashes.
