PhysX acceleration coming to G92 gpus

[johnksss]

trying to be the first person to get it working under vista 32 bit. where it really counts most.

How did you get it working under XP x64 - did you do anything special?

Have you tested performance?

nope, just installed it and it worked. and that would be xp 32 bit

edit: can't tell if it working or not under xp, but seems to only be sort of working. trying to run cell factor demo and it says,"physx's hardware not detected..blah blah blah"

Yeah I don't think Cell Factor works for any1 unless you have a proper PhysX card.

Can you run 3DMark Vantage with PhysX drivers installed and uninstalled and see what results you get:

I've got 177.39 installed on my P-6831FX, as well as the NVIDIA PhysX System Software, Version: 8.06.12 WHQL, which you need to install also.

Anyway on my system, when I go into the PhysX Properties Settings, I can't activate any one of the Hardware selctions, GeForce PhysX or the Aegia PhysX. They are both grayed out.

So while the Nvidia video driver works, the PhysX portion doesn't seem to work on the 8800M GTS.

nope. vantage is only for vista and up.

[iaTa]

That's a good point! I wonder what else you could test - UT3 maybe?

[johnksss]

they have a demo laying around?

[iaTa]

Just read that the UT3 PhysX mod pack is for the full version only. There must be something you can test - let me think.

[johnksss]

well just let me know if you find something.
