Need help with nvapi.dll.

[DerkurvigeTyrann]

Hi I tried to write a small script, which should read out the memory size and the available memory of my video Card.
I searched for some functions in google and found this one NvAPI_GPU_GetMemoryInfo.

http://docs.nvidia.com/gameworks/content/gameworkslibrary/coresdk/nvapi/group__driverapi.html#gac66aa214173169763b305ecfa77a215d

My problem is that I have nearly zero experience with DLLs and want to ask if somebody could help me with that.

I already found some code on this thread '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> but as described there it won´t work.

Maybe a site, with a tutorial i could learn from? I´ll take everything i´m pretty desperate^^
