I think that those who would install modded graphics drivers already get there info from sites like Guru3D.

New York, NY | Are you saying PhysX capable drivers and any necessary accompanying software has been released or leaked?
If so I’m one of the hypothetical 10% that would install them  |

| Thanks for the linkage DKS and TK421!
I find this infinitely more interesting then the standard run of the mill WHQL release because I was looking forward to this since it was first announced.

Thanks for the link, I'm downloading the driver now.
Since we're on the topic... when will those PhysX drivers come out? |

| Good question,… I'm guessing within 30 days or so,...
Indeed since we are on the subject where does one get the modified “inf” file?
Sorry for the thread hijack Dogwood, back to your regularly scheduled thread |

It specifically say that only the GTX200 and 9800 card are supported.

And, whoever zipped the full 117.39 driver file at Hardforum has no clue what they are doing.

It certainly does. They loaded just fine on my 8800GTS. Then load the PhysX driver. You can see what you card will do if you go to Control Panel ==> nVidia PhysX and click on the demos.

| No go on the 177.39 driver install.
With the driver downloaded through Hardforums I get a message like "cannot find compatible hardware" and if then replace with the modded INF file also downloaded through Hardforums it just won't install, no error message other than it failed to install.

| Unfortunately, the old G80 is not supported at this time. Even with the modified inf file you still must have at least a G92 based card. Again my “guess” is that the official support for the G92 and older G80 will come sometime within the next 30 days. |
