Thanks for the heads up

How high can the shader go? And what sort of gains does it produce? (8800GTS)

Riva is the ####

Okay I've uninstalled my 163.44 beta drivers, rebooted in safe mode, run driver cleaner, rebooted, installed 163.71 drivers, installed rivatuner 2.05 and I have no shader slider.

What am I doing wrong please?

funky. Try uninstalling rivatuner and reinstalling 2.05 again.

Greebo · 28 Sep 2007 at 20:09

I should have said, tried that. I have also tried unistalling 163.71 drivers and rivatuner, reboot in safe, driver cleaner again, cc cleaner to remore any rivatuner stuff left behind, rebooted, installed 163.71 drivers again, rebooted, installed rivatuner 2.05 and still nothing.

I'm sooooooooooooooooooooo disappointed

I'm lacking the shader OC option also.

Are you running Vista?

For those who can't see the shader slider:

New user interface is provided by default under ForceWare 163.67 and newer drivers under Windows Vista, however Windows XP owners can also force Vista specific overclocking interfaces usage by setting NVAPIUsageBehaviour to 1. If needed, shader clock control can be forcibly disabled and old traditional overclocking module UI appearance can be forced by setting NVAPIShaderClockControl to 0.

The last 3 builds all have MS Driver signing thanks to ATI TOOL maker dude.

You sure as mine shows as not been signed & gets blocked from starting up when vista boots up?

This is with Vista 64.

Greebo · 28 Sep 2007 at 20:42

100%, thats what the little funny Zip icon file is, I also put a copy of it in RivaTuner DIR for good measure.

Try booting with F8, turn on driver signing then install.
