Sim4Life V5.2.1 uses Acceleware's Tauranga library version 11.1.13.
Please get the latest NVIDIA driver for your hardware
from the Acceleware website: https://acceleware.com/fdtd-11.1.13.

Please note that only NVIDIA GPUs with CUDA Compute Capability 1.3
or higher are supported by the Sim4Life CUDA solver (e.g., Tesla 
C10XX).
The AXE solver supports only CUDA Compute Capability >= 2.0.

3. List of Main Bugs Fixed Since V5.2 Release
--------------------------------------------------------------------

- Case 126662: Fix of a bug preventing to clone a locked simulation 
setup as an unlocked simulation
- Case 126661: Fix a bug in IMAnalytics Tier2 that prevented 
extracting B field
- Case 126342: Fix of a bug preventing low frequency simulations to 
run when the model length was set to micrometers
- Case 126257: Enabled "Vector" option" in the Slice Viewer 
properties of Poynting Vector
