PhysX in W7 not working right.
I guess this is the right place since this is a Windows 7 only issue. I'm running Windows build 7000 x64. Just yesterday picked up a 9600GT to use dedicated as PhysX GPU. However that doesn't even seem to be the issue. My problems so far are listed below. I'm sure there are more but I don't even want to test anymore PhysX in W7 at this point.
Only in W7 when testing PhysX features: Fluidmark - shows black lines / boxes Mirror's Edge - Black artifacts, really low PhysX performance. Everything works fine in Vista. Also, a buddy of mine was the one that found the issues, I just installed ME and FluidMark to confirm and sadly I can. I tried Compatibility modes and Admin with no luck. Reported to MS already but just thought I'd post it here for anyone else looking for a solution or confirmation of the problem.

Re: PhysX in W7 not working right.
Had a buddy with an ATI verify this too. Installed Physx software, ran FluidMark in PhysX software... same thing.
This has been reported.

Re: PhysX in W7 not working right.
This is Windows 7 x64 only. Works fine in x86, to confirm I just reinstalled Windows 7 x86, working 100% physx.

Re: PhysX in W7 not working right.
If you use the Windows 7 drivers from NV it works.

You will need Vista.

Re: PhysX in W7 not working right.
Nope, PhysX is working properly now in Windows 7 with the Win7 NVidia beta drivers.
