Do you have your 8800GTS in the top-most PCIe slot? Seriously, it has to be there.

It shouldn't make any difference in performance, the 4870 does not utilize all of the x8 bandwidth.

I WAS SO CLOSE!!! I clicked enable Physx and BAM BSOD! "Driver is mismanaging PTEs" 0x000000DA .

I think this is a XP 64 issue so I'll format and install 32bit and see if it works. But you were right the only way is to set is as first PCIE and I realized it runs at 8x and 8x so it makes no difference lol.

I'll report when I'm done!

No, it doesn't, I have gotten 4850x2 (1st slot) 4850 (2nd slot) and a 8600GTS (3rd slot) for physx operation to work just fine. (this is in windows 7)

Delete all vid card drivers, install nvidia package first (not physx only, the whole package) Then you install ATI drivers. You need to hook a monitor to both cards and enable landscaping, with the ATI card as primary display.

The only way i got this to work was by using 2 monitors with the same native res, i could not get it to work with only 1 monitor.

Ok so I did what you said and I installed the NVIDIA driver package after Driver Sweeping but still no Physx option I just can't find it. Is there a way to manually enable it?

EDIT: I also have enabled landscaping, which I think is when you extend the desktop correct? They are both at 1680x1050
