Nvidia has released a new set of WHQL-certified drivers to provide GeForce owners with support for some of the latest gaming applications and add a couple of new features. The new package, version 181.22, contains the latest PhysX System Software (9.09.0010) and features improved support for GPU accelerated physics effects in the highly anticipated Mirror’s Edge title by Electronic Arts.

Of course, just like with older drivers, PhysX requires a GeForce 8-series card or later sporting at least 256MB of dedicated video memory. Aside from this, a few bug fixes are also included, which can be found in the release notes available here in PDF form. The new driver supports Nvidia’s GeForce 6, 7, 8 and 9-series GPUs as well as the newer GTX 200-series, and can be downloaded for Windows Vista (32 or 64-bit) and Windows XP (32 or 64-bit).
