overcloccking videocard

I use Vista Home Premium, build 6000, 64 bit. So far so good. Now I would
like to overclock my videcard NVDIA 7600GT with coolbits. If I hack the
register by dubbleclcicking coolbits.reg I cannot open the overclock screen
of my videocard.
Does anybody know how to solve??

Hi..

you could try this..

Once Coolbits has been activated, Open up the 'display' applet in control
panel, then go to 'settings' and 'advanced'. Click on the tab with the nVidia
logo and the name of the videocard to open up the nVidia video card control
application.

From the menu, choose the 'clock frequency' option.

Using the sliders, the video card's core and memory speeds can now be
overclocked. Before the new settings can be confirmed, they will need to be
tested using the 'test settings' button. Once the settings have been affirmed
by using this button, the card will be set to the new speeds.

Good Luck!
it worked for me.

Sandy, tahnks for reply.
Of couse, that's exact the way it should go. Unformtunately after activating
coolbits, I can open video card control screen...........however, there is
nothing on that screen. It is totally empty. Couyld it be Vista 64 bit is
causing this??
