Default Overclocking Nvidia Card with Vista 64-bit

I'm stumped. I tried:

ATI TOOL (kernel Error)
RivaTuner (Driver not signed, Disabled the driver thing and same error)
nTune (installs, go to control panel and I get a blank screen)

None of them worked. Infact nTunes forked up my control panel and now I can't change anything Check picture below (Have to reinstall drivers again).




Does anyone know a program that will WORK with VISTA 64-bit that overclocks nvidia cards?

In the worst case you could resort to using nvFlash to obtain your card's BIOS, edit the clocks with NiBiTor, and then reflash. You can find nvFlash and NiBitor over at mvkTech.

Reinstall ATI-Tool and when installing select the do not install driver option in the Windows pop-up.

Rivatuner and ATI TOol both work for me in Vista x64. You don't have to disable driver signing because they both have signed drivers.

It will if the program runs in DOS. I did this with atiflash, and created a bootable flash drive using HP's utility (posted at techpowerup.com)
FLash the clocks, reboot, and you're good.

However I think something is up with the driver interacting with the OCing software.....it should work.

You absolutely DO NOT want to do that until you find out what your stable oc is. If you flash a unstable oc you could be in for a real pain in the butt.

I think something else is borking up your system. Ntune works fine for me. Do you have UAC turned off. If you dont I would recommend turinging it off.
