    i just recently downloaded the latest version of Nvidia's 6.03 tool software. the updates look the same as before but when i try overclocking my gpu(9800mGTS)
    it says " The changes made were invalid and will not be applied." what the heck does that mean. i tried clocking to 700/900/1650 which is very reasonable for the specs i have on my laptop. can anyone please tell me other overclocking programs except for rivatuner ( their most updated version which i think is 2.1.1 does not have the right clocking specs) AND im using Dox's 180.44 driver
