Sure US Forces. As you know, December 8th, Nvidia released the 97.44 8800 series driver. Driver is stable, the only problem is, you have no choice but to use the crappy Nvidia Control Panel, you won't even have the choice to run the classical one. So, us tweakers, we want it back, so, go into "run" and type "regedit.exe"

there, follow the steps:

KHEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Nvidia Corporation\Global\NvCplApi\Policies
then create the DWORD
SedonaDisable
and set the value to 2
Now, you will have the Nvidia Control Panel interface choice.

To access the classical one, go in
display properties/settings/advanced/Geforce 8800GTX (tab) and bottom of the list, you will see:
"Control Panel User Interface"
And then chose the one you want.

I am currently running nTune that I use ONLY to do stability tests and GPU overclocking. GPU overclocking works with nTune only in the classical control panel anyway, the Nvidia Control Panel is so glitchy that it will crash your system when trying to "detect optimal".
