<p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{technote|CyanWorlds.com Engine (Client)|v1.897 (a'moaca'/cjkelly1 initial release)|CWE client loops trying to install PhysX}}{{clear}}<br />
== Problem Description ==<br />
When launching the client, it will enter a loop, continually trying to update the PhysX installation.<br />
<br />
Other manifestations may exist.<br />
<br />
== Resolution ==<br />
The original Myst Online: Uru Live (MOUL) client was built using the PhysX SDK v2.6.0 and the Ageia PhysX _Setup.exe downloaded with MOUL, MOULagain or MagiQuest Online only provides support for revisions up to 2.6.0. However the earliest SDK currently available from nVIDIA is v2.6.4, so builds of the CWE client using that SDK will require that the client PC upgrades the PhysX System Software (driver).<br />
<br />
The client detects that the PhysX installation requires to be updated and runs the installer, "PhysX_Setup.exe". If that installer is the 2.6.0 version, then it will complete but the client will again detect that the installation is out of date and the process will repeat.<br />
<br />
Users affected by this problem should download and run the PhysX System Software (v8.09.04) installer from the nVIDIA download site. [http://www.nvidia.com/object/physx_8.09.04_whql.html] You may need to rename the file after download to "PhysX _Setup.exe" and place it in your client's installation folder (check with your server operator).<br />
<br />
'''Do not''' attempt to install the latest version of the driver (currently 9.10.0513 at April 2011) as this does not declare support for SDK revisions earlier than 2.7.1.</div>Mac Fife
