If I install Directx 9.0c on Vista will it uninstall Directx 10?

You can't uninstall DirectX 10, it comes built in to Vista. Installing an older version of the DirectX Runtime will not remove or overwrite any newer versions, so there's nothing to worry about.

does vistra require 9.0c?

i would have figured that 10 would be backward compatible so that you wouldnt need 9.

all i can suggest is that you try it, it can't be too much trouble to reinstall directx if it stuffs it up :P
