PhysXLoader.dll is Missing?

YEARS after release, and this is still a thing... Finally decided to sit down and get a play-through of the games, and thus far not a single fix suggested has worked. And no, I have no intent of wiping my system to see if a fresh windows will do it.

I have DA:O on steam and I've uninstalled and reinstalled it several times, if I open it through steam it goes to the launcher but after I click "Play" nothing happens. If I try to open through the game files it tells me PhysXLoader.dll is missing.

Don't waste your time futzing around with the BS answers in this thread, just go here (unless you changed your default install folder, in which case you can figure it out for yourself)

64-bit Windows:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Dragon Age\__Installer\physx

32-bit Windows:

C:\Program Files\Origin Games\Dragon Age\__Installer\physx

and install the archaic version of PhysX in that folder. No need to reinstall the game or restart Origin or your computer. Doesn't matter whether you actually have an nVidia GPU or not, and I can't tell you why without likely being banned from this forum.

Trying to make DA:O work - trying GlassDeviant's solution above, and the Physx directory is not in the _Installer directory!? Any ideas?

Just had the same DLL missing error. There was no physx in my DA:O files either; I just googled physx and downloaded the latest nvidia driver, and it fixed everything!! so happy I don't have to reboot lol
