    257.15 Hybrid PhysX HELP!

    Hey guys,
    I'm busting my b*lls here, I'm working on a review ( Gigabyte Radeon HD5870 Super Overclock ) and I've been trying to get hybrid PhysX to work with the original 257.15 beta for the past 30-50 minutes to no avail

    Anybody managed to get it working ? How did you do it ?
    Thanks in advance.

    there are 2 versions of the driver, the earlier one worked, then nvidia realized it, and released a new version which doesnt work.
    its a BUG, they FORGOT to block hybrid physix... thats what jarrod from anandtech wrote at least...

    Cheers, got it working, had to restart after the PhysX System drivers installation.
    It's not what I'd call stable though ( could be my OS or even my hardware, think my Classified is dying )

    Yeah suuuure nVidia..... a "bug" It continues to perplex me why NV shoot themselves in the foot with this. Their current Fermi cards aren't exactly stellar yet people want to buy a NV card and sit it next to a ATi card for PhysX. All NV are doing is losing themselves money.

    How'd you fix it? I can't get mine to work

    Everyone says 'create a fake display and extend to it' but I dunno how to create it

    Edit: ah... reading page 1 of that link helps. Plus had to restart after creating the extra display
