My question is how I install Octane Demo on a PC with a Geforce 8600 GS windows 7 or is the Geforce 8600 not suportet for cuda 3.0?
I tried to install but it dosent work. i istalled Cuda 3.0 + toolkit + octane Demo.
But i get allways the massage that no cuda 3.0 file can be found.

And the same error i get on my mac too.
I have a Imac 27 quadcore I5 with Ati Card maybe thats the reason why ? Is Ati not supportet yet?

Im burning to buy octane ^^.

Hi,

ATI cards are not supported.
On your PC, you should download and install just the latest drivers from the nvidia main site, you don't need to install anything else. (cuda toolkit/drivers etc is only for Mac OS, but you're mac is not compatible as it has an ATI card)

Yours,
