    Hey all,

    Just wondering if anyone has had luck with this driver 180.70/riva tuner 2.20. i have a 9600GT DDR2 card and the clock rates that I adjust to do not stick. Anyone have a work around? I just uninstalled the drivers, used Driver sweeper, then reinstalled them... Still nothing.

    Stock 3dmark 06 score is "4400", would like to beat that :p

    Thanks

    Yeah i've got the exact same prob, just that mines a 256MB 8600m gt GDDR3 card. Clock rates can be adjusted but revert back to defualt when they are applied. Any help for me and somhavoc would be really appreciated.

    I think that the GPU Bios nowdays is locked so you can't OC your card.. That's why the clocks pop back down. I'm not absolutely shure though.
