Any way to overclock my nvidia card while running Vista (x86)

[dug777]

😱

But nvidia has said; 'WE'RE IN UR VISTA INSTALL TAKIN AWAY UR OVERCLOCKINGZ!!1!!!!111!' and coolbits doesn't help me anymore 🙁

Rivatuna didn't help me either, will anything else work? I know this card has oodles of oc'ing headroom, which would add a bit of 'snap' to my Vista experience 😉

Cheers,

Dug.

The newest version of Powerstrip is supposed to work fine with RC1 & RC2 ... although overclocking a 5200 isn't going to do much.

I take it Palit let you down on the warranty service huh?


Edit: Heres a link for you: http://entechtaiwan.net/util/ps.shtm

Its shareware & costs $29 to register, but I think you can use a limited version of it for free.

Cheers mate i'll give that a try.

Palit agreed to take the card back, but it will be over a month at least before i see it again, if i ever do....

I've read that new vista drivers from NV will be out next week. So you you sold your 6600GT? I missed that.

I've tried the new version of Power Strip on RC2 with a 7300GT 128Meg DDR3 and haven't been able to get the overclock to work. I guess the other functions like resolution changes, etc probably work but I'm only interested in clocking. It seems either MS or Nvidia have clock changing locked out.
