Can I change the Performance & Quality Settings or should I just use settings that came installed because it was optimized better that way?

Change it to whatever you'd like. It's really just your personal preference.

Blah, for some reason when I installed these drivers on my GeForceGO6600 I got a BSOD from the miniNV4(I think that's what it was called) driver, or something or other.

I had to reformat anyways, so I didn't care too much in the end. lol

But yeah, if you need more technical data on it, assuming you can't reproduce it, I can try (on my fresh machine nooo!) to reproduce it by once again going to that version and see what the outcome is.

Maybe I'm missing something but I do not get NView Display Settings menu at all where I can set Clone or Single display mode (for seeing on TV for example)
That menu is completely gone and I'm by default in Clone mode but picture on TV is black/white (that I fix with Video Output format --> Composite Video-Out)
how can I access this menu again??? Is it replaced by some other menus or what?

BTW - I'm using WinXp Pro SP2 and Nvidia 6800GT (AGP)

To everyone one else reading this, I apologise for slipping into (not great) french (been awhile), but knyz is primarily a french speaker. he is basically asking to help dhzer0point if needed, as he did in PM.

Thanks.

Je suis bon vous remercie. Je suis confus cependant, il dit-vous dans votre signature que vous travaillez au conducteur d'esprit encore, n'allez-vous pas faire ceci ? Je suis sûr que les types aimeront votre aide avec le zeropoint d'ailleurs, gentil de toi d'offrir. Bien que poopy n'est pas autour de beaucoup en retard, vous pourriez être meilleur obtenir en contact avec le blackboost ou les fobis pour une causerie d'abord.

désolé pour mon pauvre Français, j'ai besoin pratique encore !

Can someone from creators answer my question please? It seems that I'm not the only one who have this problem. I really like dhzero drivers but I cant use them now cos of NView menu that is missing somehow
Thanx in advance

I am having the same problem. I am running a GeForce 4 4200 Go. It worked fine with the 84.43 driver set, but now I have no way to change which 2 monitors I want to use. I currently have "4" monitors, my built-in laptop display, a TV out, and VGA and DVI both connected to the same LCD monitor (VGA as a backup since the cable came free with the monitor). It somehow defaulted to using the laptop display and VGA out for the LCD, which was normal for previous driver upgrades. However, I cannot change it to DVI or TV-Out. It still displays "Samsung Syncmaster (1 of 2)" ("1 of 2" being the VGA connector, "2 of 2" being DVI), but no way to access the "2 of 2" I usually use.

Sorry I haven't responded I was at my sisters wedding and my mobo has died from a bad flash so my only access is at work. I will have the nview issue fixed ASAP. Also the performance option is in the control panel not during install. I will be around now during the week. Knyz sorry I haven't gotten back to you. We'll talk.

DenHd is on a distinguished road

Hello,

I would like first to thank the DH ZP team for their very nice drivers but I'm having some troubles with the installation of the two latest driver sets.

In fact, just after the installation, my computer crash and I get a blue screen in which it's told me that there is a problem with nv4_mini.sys . I only get this with 84.43 and 84.66 versions. 84.25 are just installing fine.

I don't think there is a problem with the way I install them (unistall old drivers => reboot safe mode + driver cleaner PE => reboot, instalation of new set and a last reboot)

I have never got this problems with other tweaked drivers or nVidia officals.
I tried to install them in safe mode, it works but, after I reboot, I have straightaway a crash and blue screen.

I have a 6800 PCI-E card running on Intel 3.6 Ghz with 2 Go DDR2.

Thanks in advance for your advices.
