NT 4.0 comes with DirectX 2 and service pack 3 upgrades it to version 3.
 
There is also an unofficial DirectX 5 rip.
 
This means that you can't play games requiring later versions of DirectX and no Direct3D hardware acceleration is supported. So basically you have to stick to old games and OpenGL-based games (or upgrade to Windows 2000).
