I recently downloaded Mss Effect 3, and when I try to install it it says PhysX failed to load and stops installing. EA won't help me, so any ideas are appreciated.

Let me guess ATI graphic card?

Yeah

Seems a lot of people today are being hit with this problem, not asked them all but I am sure its because of them having an ATI GPU.

As explained ATI never uses the physx software, since they don't have hardware support for Physx only software emulation.

Not sure if its because it was previously installed on the system or because the latest install file for Physx actually checks hardware. But it should at least notice if you have an ATI card and report back that its ok to continue to the ME3 Installer.

It won't let me. Everytime I try to install it gives me the error.

Because it is not supported by your Graphic Card. It is only for Nvidia cards.

Like I said I have no idea why it fails for some people but worked for others with ATI graphic cards.

Ok, so do you know of anyways to fix this?

Like I said, I have no idea why it does it, either because Physx software was already installed and it tried to update it, or it fails a hardware check, no idea.. was letting you know you are not the only one with the problem.

And also not sure why people who have ATI cards have successfully installed the game easily.

So it may come down to something that was installed on the PC that is acting up with the Physx installer.

Alright thanks for the help man. Hopefully EA will patch this.
