This tweak will only work with Nvidia gpu's with an nvidia detonator driver. It can be downloaded from http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp . We are going to need the windows registry. always make sure you make a backup of your registry before you are going to edit it. Open your registry by pressing the start button choose run and type regedit.click on the NVTweak folder you now see and create a new Dword value name it CoolBits (make sure you use a big C and B) one's created open it and make the value 2 (hex or decimal) This was the tweak. You can now go to your display properties select advanced in the settings tab and then go to your detonator there you would find a new function called clock frequencies.
Is there a registry tweak to add the item "Go to Folder" in the right click context menu for windows explorer in XP? ie. without having to install MS shell toys.
I have Tweak UI set to auto logon for me and it works fine once then it resets itself and turns that off. I also have ultramon setting my backgrounds and they never stick after a reset of the computer. I wanna say this has something to do with me installing and uninstalling mcafee and norton a couple of times. (i have only norton now).
I installed CD Slide Generator from Tweak PowerToys for XP.Now I can't find it, plus I can't find where there might be a newsgroup to ask this question
I ran a new tweak called Process Monitor, and the last statement on the "process tree" was "rundll32.exe" I looked on the internet and it said that this could possibly be a spyware tracking me, but it has a microsoft name applied to it. Can you tell me if I should delete this or not? It has 500 or so records (dll's I'm assuming) attached to it. When I run CCleaner, my firewall (kerio) asks that rundll32.exe wants to execute.
The registry key LargeSystemCache "1" on a RAID Windows XP Pro configuration will lead to disastrious read/write errors. The only way to fix is to open registry and changing the key quickly right after booting Windows and then do an official restart/shutdown.The key is located here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEM CurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerMemory ManagementLargeSystemCache This tweak is widly spread to be enabled but there is never a warning for anyone on RAID! If on RAID do NOT enable this key!

(the {EE383506-901D-43C6-8E40-9A61901DF7CC} part will be different for you, it is an individual number Add or modify the string key called WindowTitle and make its value the desired window title. Then close the registry editor, and restart Outlook Express (if it's running.) Your new title now shows up in the title bar!
I am having display problems with two applications under winows XP. The control software that comes with my Asus MB called AIsuite and also the Nvidia GPU monitoring program. Both use those fixed graphical interfaces (ie not windows standard) a bit like winamp etc. Both show very messed up interfaces on my system with icons in wrong places, text running off edge of GUI etc. I was suspicious it was to do with my windows font settings so removed cleartype and insured size was set to normal. However, the glitches still show up.
I have an XP pro computer. I have a Nvidia video card and a SB audigy 2Zsound card. What I hear coming over speakers is great, but when I talk on the mic my sound is extremely low (even though everything is turned up as high as possible and whoever is listening to me on mic hears a noise every 15 minutes or so. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Computer is only a month and a half old
Ok, I have solved "MY" nv4 loop error.It is not a software fix however. After I and most people have tried every fix out there, I decided to go to the root of the problem. The memory. I ran boot up with each DIMM alone. I use 3 1gb OCZ 6400's . 2 of these DIMM's ran any program that crashed before with no problem, only 1 did not. I ran the 2 DIMM's together and no more error. I have heard that there is an issue with the 680i motherboards giving incorrect voltage to memory or that it reads incorrect voltage . In either case on memory module is bad. While I consider this a final troubleshoot victory , it isnt cheap. But none the less im happy with the outcome.
My Network adaptor screen identifies a problem (yellow exclamation mark) saying NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller - McAfee Core NDIS Intermediate Filter Miniport and WAN Miniport (IP) - McAfee Core NDIS Intermediate Filter Miniport ive lost internet connection and hence can surf the net or email. Does anyone know specifically how to download the correct drivers and then install on the PC. PS I have a lap top and a portable harddrive
I've got two big screen monitors connected to my 9800GT via HDMI cables. They are configured for a vertical span configuration in the NVIDIA drivers (updated to the latest version of the driver)When I turn off the second monitor which I do sometimes to save power, either windows or the nvidia drivers auto-detects that the second monitor was powered off and changes my video configuration to a single monitor configuration, resizing my desktop back to fit on only one monitor. When I turn my second monitor back on, I need to manually re-configure the video settings every time.
Not sure if this is the right group for this question - so apologies if anyone feels aggrieved.I have been told that it might be a good idea to update my nvidia geforce2 mx/mx400 bios (not driver) as it is 3 years old. I'm a bitconfused because the bios doesn't seem to be available on the nvidiasite but I have to get it from my motherboard site, Jetway. Am I goingnuts here? Can anyone reassure me of the best way of updating the biosin this video card?
My computer restarts on its own without giving an error msg/warning... I even disabled auomatic restart under system & recovery but the problem still persists I have: Intel Pentium 4 3.06GHz Microsoft XP Service Pack 2 which recently got updated to SP3 250GB HD 1GB RAM 512MB Nvidia Graphic Card Well but it once gave a BLUE SCREEN with error
I'm running Win/XP on a Toshiba Laptop, 40MB. Everything is up to date regarding MS updates. Yesterday I noticed my screen begin to "unstabilize". The images of letters and graphics started breaking up and eventually I received a msg stating that the NVIDIA graphics NV4_DISP display driver has stopped working normally. I went to the NVIDIA site but I was not sure what driver to D/L and if that is even what I should do.. Can someone please advise me. I have to use another computer (my wife's) since mine only works for about 2-4 minutes before it shuts down (actually it seems to go into safe mode, but the letters eventually fragment and I have to shut down.).
The USB ports on my friend's laptop (HP Pavilion DV6000 running XP Home) randomly stopped working about a week ago. He hasn't made any changes to the system in some time. When you plug in a USB device, it gets power, but the computer doesn't recognize it. Here's what I've tried so far:Uninstalled all USB drivers from the device manager Unchecked the "allow computer to turn off this device" option under power management Installed newest version of the nVidia cihpsetMade sure that USB is enabled in the BIOS Tried a registry fix found here http://forums.techguy.org/hardware/6...p-working.htmlUnfortunately, nothing has worked. What worries me is that I also tried using an Ubuntu live cd, and no USB devices were recognized there either. I'm thinking that this might be a hardware problem which can't be fixedI declare this problem unfixable?
over the last 2 days i have gotten the BSoD and the error that comes up is that NV4_DISP is the cause of it every time. i looked it up and that is in my nvidia files. All my windows are updated, as is my direct X, nvidia drivers. i scaned for virus, spywear, anything i could think of.No errors come up anywhere, no virus, no spywear, according to my machine everything is running right. So my quesiton is, why the BSoD and if it keeps coming up in my video card, does that mean its dying ?
I'm trying to get my Nvidia Display settings to save under the Change Display Configuration panel and every time I reboot they seem to revert back to regular settings under another resolution.I am using a laptop with a LCD monitor and I'm trying to get the "Only use one display (Single)" setting to stick, and it works when I hit apply but after the reboot it gets removed back to (Clone).
I'm in a bit of a pickle, I was installing some beta drivers from nvidia on my gaming desktop just for fun, but when I restarted the computer can't run for more then 3 minutes until it crashes, so I need to go back and reverse the drivers i installed or get rid of them. The dilemma here is that I'm not exactly sure what I need to do, nor can I BOOT INTO SAFE MODE, which has been an issue for me for about a year now. Whenever I begin to login in safe mode the computer abruptly restarts before it even reaches the desktop
My system worked fine until I loaded a recommended windows update for my NVIDIA Winfast GeForce 3 TDH card. It loaded a driver that wasn't compatible with my widescreen LCD monitor. I reloaded what I thought was the NVIDIA driver 93.71 forceware for XP and things work better, but... I'm getting an annoying flash anytime I right click on a video file icon OR when I go open the NVIDIA control panel OR when I go into the video advanced settings on my desktop. Those are the only times I get the flash. It's not really a flash but more like my monitor is out of vertical phase. It's rapid and brief. Not a critical problem but I would like to find a fix. I've tried every refresh rate and setting with in the NVIDIA controls but I can't get rid of it. if I didn't know it didn't do this previously, I'd ignore or replace my card. I do not have the original driver for this card because I bought it used without it. Perhaps someone could suggest a better driver?
I recently purchased a new graphics card (name in the title) and I installed it and I got an error at startup explaining that I did not have sufficient power supply so it lowered the power of the card.. it said something about adding power cords(that came with the card) but I don't know where or how to put them in
Windows XP. I'm on a laptop running XP, with a monitor designed for 1920x1200. I use a Geforce Go 6800 graphics card. Recently whilst playing a game (Football Manager 2007 if it matters?!) the game crashed, and it went to desktop. The icons/etc on the desktop were noticeably enlarged. I did an online test and found my resolution had swapped to 1536x960. checking display, properties, settings, or whatever it is, it still says i'm in 1920x1200. I've had this problem before, the last time I had it, I uninstalled my windows monitor driver and it automatically fixed it. I've done this several times, and uninstalled/reinstalled the nvidia geforce drivers (from my dell CD) once or twice as well and it hasnt fixed it at all.
I installed the latest Nvidia drivers. No problem there. But now, each time I boot up, I have this page fllling the screen (Windows explorer?) It's blank except for one folder - WINXP. It's easy to remove each time, but how can I get this page or whatever it is, to take a hike and get lost, so that just the desktop icons are visible? Would appreciate any help. Using xp home, P4, 1 gig RAM.
1) Start - Run - RegeditNavigate to the following Registry key:HKEY CURRENT USERControl PanelDesktopDouble click on the AutoEndTasks entry and replace the 0 with a 1 in the Value data text box For the next two, if the dword value indicated does not exist, create it: Double click on the WaitToKillAppTimeout entry in the right pane and change the Value data to 2000 Double click on the HungAppTimeout entry in the right pane and change the Value data to 1000 Reboot
If still having a problem, make the next change: 2) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlRight-click on WaitToKillServiceTimeout and change it to 2000 NOTE:The lowest value Windows will recognize is 1000 (1 second) ADVISORY: While rare, the "WaitToKillService" tweak can cause problems.If an application is in the process of saving data and the associated service is stopped prematurely, the data will not be saved and may be lost.
I want a single desktop click to enable/disable windows XP taskbar auto hide.I can do this if I write a script for the AutoHotkey macro tool to open the relevant dialog box and then check or uncheck the appropriate check box.I'd like to open the dialog box with a command line from AutoHotkey, or a similar operation. Right-clicking the taskbar even in the program is uncool.The catch is, I can execute any CP dialog EXCEPT this one as a command line, either passing a dialog parameter to Control.exe or else using a *.cpl file name with Control.exe or directly. But I can't find "Taskbar and Start Menu".
So i was trying to make some room on y C drive and i guess i deleted some files that i shouldn't To make a long story short now my volume control thingy that stays on my taskbar has dissapeared.When i go to the control panel and to sounds and audio devices and i get in there and there is an icon with the option to place volume icon on the taskbar but when i click on that i get 'windows cannot display the volume control on the task bar because the volume control program has not been installed. After several tries i figured i deleted the windows file soundvol32.exe but how the hell do i get it back and put it in its right place?I have no idea where it would go? Anybody have an idea how i can install that back? I tried using my windows cd but since i put service pack 2 on it it said that the version of windows i had on the cd was older than my current version.
