    I'm currently running 190.40 drivers for my GeForce 9500M on my SXPS13. Before updating to 190.40, clicking the little green NVIDIA tray icon that shows what mode you're running in allowed me to choose my mode manually through the use of two radio buttons. Currently, I can only switch between "Boost Performance" and "Save Power" by switching power profiles in Windows. Is there some way I can get back those radio buttons without having to go back to the older driver?

    Dont think so no.
    I rather like the option to change sli mode by myself, so i would like to now that as well :p

    Is probably detectable by checking diffrences in regedit bewteen the version.
