I thought it would be cool to try out the sled demo, but when you load it, it says I do not have a 400 series card installed.
This same message is on windows 7, 8.1, and windows 10. I have a GTX 970.
Has anyone been able to run this demo ? If so, is there a place to force the program to run without hardware checking?

    I ran into the same issue with the Design Garage. Didn't care enough to track down a fix lol, if there is one.

    Yep, Nvidia used to lock those demos down. Was annoying as hell. It's Nvidia being Nvidia.

    Huh, just put Design Garage on Windows 10 and it's working perfectly.
     
    I'll toss the Sled demo on here and see if it works.

    The  changes to supported AA modes with Maxwell+ hardware causes an error message to appear if you attempt to select an antialiasing level from the setup utility.
     
    leave it at No AA and configure MSAA from the nvcp.
     
    Design Garage requires compiling against the latest optix library.
