Info:

WDDM is a replacement for the previous Windows 2000 and Windows XP display driver model, XDDM / XPDM, and is aimed at enabling better graphics performance as well as new graphics features and stability. Display drivers in Windows Vista and Windows 7 can use either WDDM or XDDM. However, with the removal of XDDM from Windows 8, WDDM became the only option. WDDM provides the capabilities needed to render the desktop and applications with Desktop Window Manager, a compositing window manager running Windows Direct3D. It also supports new DXGI interfaces, which are required for basic device management and creation. The WDDM specification requires at least a Direct3D 9 capable graphics card, and the display driver must implement the device driver interfaces for the Direct3D 9Ex runtime to run older Direct3D applications. Optional runtime interfaces for Direct3D 10 and higher can be implemented.
