Infernal is a third-person shooter released by Metropolis Software and Eidos.

Issues and fixes

AGEIA not found

Infernal will not run on a modern system, claiming that the PhysX SDK not installed.

The steps to fix this issue are the same as those found in Ageia PhysX driver:

  1. Run the PhysX installation found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\infernal. This will uninstall the existing driver, and roll you back to an earlier edition. It also breaks modern games.
  2. Backup the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\AGEIA Technologies before continuing.
  3. Install NVidia PhysX system software, version 8.09.04, found here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/physx_8.09.04_whql.html
  4. Return to C:\Program Files (x86)\AGEIA Technologies, and merge the new folder contents with the backup.
  5. Open C:\Windows\System32 and/or C:\Windows\SysWOW64. Sort by name, and backup anything starting with PhysX (keep track of where these files were.)
  6. Open C:\Windows\system32\drivers, and backup any physx drivers (either physX.sys or physX64.sys)
  7. Open C:\Windows\System32 and/or C:\Windows\SysWOW64 and backup the AEGIS folder.
  8. Install the latest version of Nvidia PhysX. Drivers may be downloaded at http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us, and following the NVIDIA PhysX System Software link.
  9. Backup C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Engine.
  10. Copy the contents of the C:\Program Files (x86)\AGEIA Technologies backup into C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Engine - overwrite when prompted.
  11. Restore the backup of c:\windows\syswow64 and c:\windows\system32 (excluding any registry key entries)

A less convoluted fix is possible, but any files are behind registration sites. [1]
