    Hello,

    I have a customer who is trying to run Solidworks on a M50Vm-B2, which has a NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GS. Problem is, the programs crashes up and freezes whenever he does anything. I called Solidworks and they wouldn't help me because the card is not on the supported list. Is there a way that I can get it to work? I have heard that you can softmod it into a quattro, has anyone ever done this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the tip, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. When I go to customize in Rivatuner, it doesn't show low-level system settings. Do you know if there is something else I need to do to get this to show up?
