Sorry but there is no Direct X 10 drivers currently out, so you can't run any game in Direct X 10. And until the DX10 patch comes out, fsX will be strictly and only DX9.

It doesn't matter if you have it or not.  The FSX on the market right now is NOT DX10 compatible, a patch will be released for it eventually.  Also, DX10 only works on DX10 video cards
