NBR Vista Tips and Tweaks Guide

No..the highest revision isnt always the one...look at the date.

The date isn't always indicative of the most recent driver either.

You must always check the LV2GO forums, they show the newest videodriverupdates there, they messed up the database for drivers on the website a while ago, so best is still to check the forums.

Latest is 163.74.

First download the driver then download the modded .inf for installing the driver. Unpack the driver then replace the original .inf with the modded .inf you just downloaded, that should do the trick

I think I left the instructions in the tweak above for installation..

Hey flamenko!

I had an issue with desktop heap on Vista. I fixed it and wrote an article about it, and then remembered this thread. Can it be considered as a tweak worth adding?

Read here: FIX: (Vista/XP/Server 2003): Desktop heap exhausted? Windows cannot open a new window, app, tab, menu etc.?

Cheers, and greetings from Zagreb!

First, thanks for making this very useful thread Flamenko. (rep'd) I'm trying a couple right now and I'm trying to disable the search indexing or whatever but when I hit okay for 'Include subfolders and files' I get an error that says "An error occured in applying attributes to the file: C:\boot\memtest.exe, Access is denied." It gives me the option to Ignore, Ignore All, Try Again (doesn't work), and cancel. What should I do?

[Les]

You can ignore it and it wont affect the usage of the file. Indexing will still be turned off.

No I can't. When I hit F12, (or F2) it moves to a blue screen, but I have no options.

After the defrag I waited for quite a while with 0% on cpu and then restarted as it said to restart. I actually did the tunexp once before (a week or 2 ago) and it worked fine then. I have now UAC turned off.

First off, Why do it twice they only get fragmented during the initial instalation.

Thanks ThomasH,

Schud assisted him through PM. It was a hardware fix, not software.
