For several weeks I was unable to get the CS4 GPU accelleration working under WinXP 64 bit (not officially supported by Adobe). I spent hours on the phone with ATI and a bit of time w Adobe also. No sucess with my ATI FireGL V3600 which works fine with DAZ Studio showing full textures in the View window and does decent and very fast renders.

Afte I gave up and started building a Vista 64bit machine, I saw a post from Slim_W who got GPU accelleration working fine with his very expensive FL card.

I had already gone through installing latest drivers, running special Adobe Reg patching utility files etc.

When I checked ATI, I saw there was brand new driver available. I downloaded and installed, ran the Adobe utility and GPU Accelleration works beautifully.

Anyone else who is using WinXP 64bit might find this info useful.
