Where's my control panel?
« on: June 14, 2009, 01:13:54 PM »
I downloaded the newest drivers from NVIDIA on my W7 RC Build 7100 machine, and quite simply now I can't locate the NVIDIA control panel. And playing Aces High sucks without antialiasing.

Dumb question but check control panel?

Could always do a simple search in windows search.

There is also right click windows screen.

Those are the 3 ways I know that you can find it.

Did that.

"There is also right click windows screen."
Did that.

Tried that.

I'm thinking it didn't install the control panel somehow... is there some way I can install it separately?

I have NO IDEA how the GUI works in Windows 7, but in XP you can always get to it by the right-clicking the desktop. Or, under Display>Settings>Advanced>then the tab with that card's name on it. I don't know where the equivalents to those would be, though.

Could always try reinstalling the drivers...think that is how the control panel is included.

I had the drivers before, both on my XP and W7 partition, with a functioning control panel so I know where it should be normally... but for some reason it's not there.


I'll check those links out Charge, thanks.
