I'm using the latest Detonator drivers from nVidia, but the problem is, the option for overclockin my video card is gone. How can I get it back, or what can I use (other than PowerStrip) to overclock my card?

the best way to go would be to go back to an older set of drivers...coolbits doesnt work with the 12.41's i would say go back to the 12.20's, performance isnt any worse and you can use coolbits

The NVIDIA drivers (12.41) always have the OC panel "hidden", you need to use something like the current coolbits hack or powerstsrip to get the card to overclock.

Actually its because the 12.41 are WHQL drivers and all WHQL drivers have OCing removed, even if you use coolbits. The best option IMO is to use the 12.60 drivers from www.the-ctrl-alt-del.com they are not WHQL and allow OCing, or you can just take the nvcpl.dll from the 12.60 drivers and overwrite the version from 12.41 and that will allow you to OC them again.
