ok i have i quick question which is niggling me, lets see if anyone has an answer
right, im running NV & ATI drivers so i can utilize physX on the primary ATI card, a new physX revision was released with the latest NV offering, now im wondering if i can update the physX driver without having to re-patch the main video drivers..??
or is the patch specific to the physX driver..??
it was a real nightmare getting these 2 cards to play nicely & i dont want to send myself back to square 1 if the update removes the patch..??
if no one has a definite answer i'll just leave it as it is......

Have you tried the standalone Physx patch? I've used the standalone patches a couple of times when I didn't want to upgrade the driver and it didn't say anything about the driver being out-of-date.

ive got the standalone physX patch here, i was gonna install it, im just dreading loosing physX with the update...
ive asked in a few places & have been (strangely) told there is no patch required ..???
i find that odd, i may try the standalone installer, im certainly steering clear of their latest vid driver

I would wait. Otherwise I would go for a MSI Big Bang motherboard and both cards will work together with the Hydra chip.

Create a restore point - if it works, leave it. If it doesn't - use the restore point.

Create manual one mate. Easier to select with a lot less 'changes' than a week old one.
