CADTutor Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I just noticed that nvidia have recently released a new version of their Performance Driver for AutoCAD 2009. The big change is that this one will run with Vista. So all of you using Quadro FX cards with Vista (like me ) have been waiting for this for some time.

So all of you using Quadro FX cards with Vista (like me ) have been waiting for this for some time. ok, so I get excited at the possibilities with this, so I download it. go to install and it says it can't find an installed version of 2009. Suppose it's cuz it's MEP ?? I'm going to reboot and re-try I appreciate the link! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumfatnhappy Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 ok so no go, if *anyone* running MEP figures out how to install this please PM me? Meanwhile I'm going after Nvidia.... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CADTutor Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 The Nvidia documentation says that the driver should "auto sense" AutoCAD and start working without problem. Good luck with Nvidia, let us know how you get on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CADTutor Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 The latest driver for Quadro FX seems to be 169.96 and this has the AutoCAD driver integrated. Autodesk haven't given it the official nod yet but since they were involved with the development, I guess it must be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zedweb Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I've got the same exact problem, is it because I have a LT 2009? After driver upgrades still can´t install performance driver. Specs: Windows Vista Enterprise SP1 32 bits Intel Xeon X3350 2 Gb DDR 3 1333 Intel Desktop Board DX38BT Pny Quadro FX 570 Has anyone been able to install performance driver on LT 2009?

chulse Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Well, I've also gotten the boot with this on Civil 3D. Has anyone found a solution for LT or verticals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
