So i just put a new gtx 560 ti into my computer and everything seemed fine but when i installed the latest version of the nvidia control panel, i clicked on the various menus fine but as soon as i clicked the 3d management settings the thing just crashed... now everytime i go into the nvidia control panel it crashes and i am unable to change any settings.. can anyone help me please!? I have played games ok so i don't think there's anything wrong with the card?
 
i've tried installing/uninstalling the latest/older drivers several times, including from safe mode. there is no longer any ATI software left on my computer. I'm at a complete loss now :/
 
interesting, let me know how you get on.

So i downloaded the nvidia tools and can overclock, change resolutions, set up multiple displays etc but whenever i click on manage 3d settings it crashes instantly... is this a massive problem or should i look into sending the card back?

Update, installed the newest beta drivers and of course it crashed but now it tells me that the error relates to the following files:
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Temp\WERD96D.tmp.WERInternalMetadata.xml
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Temp\WERF1ED.tmp.appcompat.txt
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Temp\WERF400.tmp.mdmp

Any idea what this means??
