Basically everyone knows i got a new system by now, and i have Dx 10 installed but i don't think that episode 2 is using it.
In the options it says use directx version 9, but how do i select version 10

Episode Two doesn't support DirectX 10. If I recall correctly it uses some tech similiar to what DX10 offers, but with full DX9 support. Valve think DX10 is a waste of time, and that there aren't nearly enough people using it (or Vista) to bother with DX10 only features currently.

Probably a wise decision. It limits the amount of work and takes away the errors

DX10 is mostly improvements to the hardware side of things. Most DX10 effects can be emulated via DX9 to some degree. It's certainly not the quantum leap we saw between DX7 and DX8 and again between DX8 and DX9.
