    I get the below error (see attachment) when trying to re-install/unintall nVidia tools 6.05. I am running Windows 7 RC 7201. It is specifically related to the performance part of the tools. I have tried installing earlier versions and no luck. I found a MSI fix, but that didn't resolve the issue.

    On another note, when my laptop sits idle for a while, it freezes up, sometimes temporarily, sometimes I have to manually restart (on/off button). Power settings are all off or optimum for plugged in. I think this is a WIn 7 issue, but it happens less or fixes quicker depending on what video driver I use.

    Any ideas on the above two issues would be greatly appreciated :) .
