Upgraded to vista ultimate can't overclock??

Hi, Could anyone tell me if theres anyway to overclock my gpu with vista?
I have just upgraded to vista ultimate from xp and none of my overclocking software (Ntune, rivatuner, Atitool) seems to work! i set the clocks to my desired freq and when i apply it resets itself?

I know i could flash the bios but i dont feel comfortable with that as i may do somthing wrong!

Thanks Carl.

Thanks mate,

Yeah i am using version 2.6 i even tried reinstalling it!

Also the test button seems to have disapeared since the vista install and when i press apply then ok it automatically sets back to the original settings same as all the other overclockers so i can only guess its somthing to do with vista?

Is there anything i have to change in the process with vista or is it the same as using xp?

I have tried running as administrator but still nothing? strange how some can overclock and others cant with vista!

Im using 163.75 driver which rivatuner supports.

any other sugestions?
