For some reason when I install the new drivers like 66.81 forceware, I am unable to hack up coolbits again. It won't let me type in the DWORD, doesn't anybody have a solution or suggestion?

Edit: I also tried using Rivatuner, but once I upgrade my drivers to 66.81 rivatuner doesn't work either. It does not allow me to access my clock frequencies. So it seems that once I upgrade my drivers, I can't do any type of overclocking.

If you have a 6800 and have unlocked pipes and vp's, it seems to lock clock frequencies and fails every test attempt. You have to re-lock the pipes and vp's, reboot, then you can o/c. After you o/c, use nvstrap to re-enable your pipes and vp's. make sure you check the option to retain o/c settings upon reboot. Reboot.

I know how to get access to coolbits, but the problem is once I update it to the newest drivers like 66.81 I can't use coolbits anymore. I can only use coolbits when I stick with the older drivers.
