Hello, I recently switched back to Nvidia after having ATi, and it seems that they changed the UI on me. So, I decided to DL Riva Tuner to overcock my new 7900gto, and I can't figure out how to get it to work. I've read plenty of manuals and online walkthroughs and I still can't get it. Any tips?
 
There's an option to change the ugly new UI into the older one ;). Look for it in one of the preference tabs.


As for getting riva tuner to work, you basically need to go down to the 2nd drop down box, click the arrow in the corner, and choose the button that looks like a GPU in order to change your frequencies... IIRC.
 
What's wrong with the new UI? To me it just seems like it uses more rounded and smooth buttons.

Click to expand...

Whenever I drop the box down and pull up the Low-Level System Tweaks page the only options I get are for my system fans. :confused:
 
Where it says Driver Settings and Forceware Detected underneath it, that's the arrow that you need to click. It's the lower arrow.
 
You need to go to the preferences, i can't exactly remember where, and change it back to classic view. It will then remind you that the older one is old and the newer one is better blah blah blah, and then click ok.

Once you have done that you need to download Coolbits forceware from guru3d.com in order to do the overclocking. The actual overclocking part of the driver is not included in the standard driver installation so you use this to unlock it in the registry for you.
