    Trying to get PhyX to run with ATI card on single monitor setup

    Running a XFX 5870 (10.4 Catalyst drivers) as the GPU with a GTS 250 1gb installed as the PPU (257.15 beta drivers).

    I've looked at the various guides out there and tried following the steps, but have gotten no where. So i'm basically left scratching my head trying to figure out what i'm doing wrong.

    If anyone could provide an easier step-by-step process relative to my system it'd be much appreciated.

    I don't think that tool asks for a key if you are running the version of Windows you are trying to download the ISO for.
