Get Vista. It's slower than XP but hardware is so cheap that you won't notice as long as you have a decent graphics card and a CPU from 2006 on not called "Atom".
YOU CAN'T RUN DX10 on XP. Don't tell me "Alky project" because the project is dead and doesn't actually work in the real world. Even Wined3d has a better DX10 than Alky.
Also, you're going to be stuck whatever you do eventually because you won't have DX11 hardware.
