    Nvidia configscreen in Vista doesn't work well

    My config is displayed in my signature.

    I've got 2 problems with the Nvidia configscreen (with rightmouse click on desktop => Nvidia config):

    1. not all games are displayed in the list of 'found software'. So certain games I can't use alternate settings for. When I try to add them, the titles aren't saved for the next time I run Nvidia config.

    2. any alternate GPU settings for games which are listed [such as Crysis, Dark Messiah and Psychonauts] aren't saved. So the settings are lost the minute I exit the program - even though I press apply before exiting.

    Any settings I change for all software are saved. But I would really like to apply certain settings to certain games :(

    It isn't because of driver issues; I tried the 174.74, 175.70 and 174.31 and they all got the same problem.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    ps. I got UAC enabled.
