The SLi disabled message on the NVIDIA 91.31 driver

[turkeybaggins]

Hello all i found this in the nZone forums, it fixes that annoying bubble message on start up. The one about SLi disabled? Copy paste this code into notepad and name the file but make sure it has a .reg file extension. This stops the bubble and the nvidia icon reappearing.

i.e. <yourfilenamehere>.reg

COPY AND PASTE THE FOLLOWING:


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\MediaCenterTray]
"NvCplDisableBalloonNotifications"=dword:00000 001

;[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\MediaCenterTray\NvCpl.dll]
;"FullPath"="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\NvCpl.dll"
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\MediaCenterTray\NvCpl.dll]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run]
;"NvMediaCenter"="RunDLL32.exe NvMCTray.dll,NvTaskbarInit"
"NvMediaCenter"=-
"NvCplDaemon"="RUNDLL32.EXE C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup"
;"NvCplDaemon"=-
"nwiz"="nwiz.exe /install"
;"nwiz"=-

Or you could just install the 91.33, which has that bug fixed. There is also the Nv icon in the systray that won't go away bug (for those that disable it) in the 91.31 that is fixed in the 91.33.

91.33s, yeh i got that. but using the UK drivers i can only get 91.31s. I wont bother to use the 91.33s tho cos my drivers work fine as is, game runs the best it has done in fact. So no point in messin around again, maybe i will when my 7600GT XXX comes back

There is that to consider too.

BTW there is a link on that beta page for the UK drivers,

nVidia released an official .reg file to fix this...I'm assuming that's where this tip is coming from.

I'm still using the previous official drivers..in the 8X.XX series. I'm waiting for them to fix the bugs in the next 9X.XX release I hope
