Vsync with Direct3D

hi guys,
got a question
i know FPS can be capped with Vsync enabled in full screen
it can also be capped with Vsync enabled in window mode while running OpenGL
but is there a way to cap FPS in window mode while running Direct3D?

any suggestion would be appreciated

thanks guys

VSync??? I thought it worked exactly the same for the two graphics drivers...

hi,

i've noticed the same - in window mode with directx , FPS isn't capped with vsync.

Its kept to the resolution of your monitor...

can you somehow cap the FPS at 60 with any vedio driver or any resolution
thanks

No because every monitor is different, so the resolution could be 70 for mine, 40 for someone elses and 50 for someone else... You might be able to slow the game down enough to restrict the FPS, but this would be variable on the computer as well. In a one word answer no (i don't think so)...
