81.85's CRT Nvidia Direct Access |
|
|
NVIDIA Direct Access is a new feature of forceware 8x.xx that allows to
control monitor settings within the drivers control panel. Unfortunately
it's bugged and causes lots of problems to some users because every time the
driver control panel is accessed it resets the monitor configs to defaults.
For all those who have troubles with NVIDIA Direct Access resetting the
monitor config, here is a simple fix...
After installing the drivers go in Windows\System32 and delete/rename the
following files:
nvmccs.dll
nvmccsrs.dll
....and the NVIDIA Direct Access will be history. |

I have the 81.85 drivers installed for my BFG 6800GT OC and I don't see
anything labeled Direct Access. Everything works as it always has.

Maybe your install is broken, or it's not used on the 6 series boards. |
All my 7 series cards show Nvidia Direct Access section on the 81.85
drivers.
Here is a screen grab.

Just checked mine again and the "Direct Access" is not there. Just "Desktop
Management" and under that is "Menu Editing". Install was fine so it must
just be for the series 7 cards, which is fine with me seeing how it has
caused problems for people! |

Yeah had the same problem ........ uninstalled the driver
and reinstalled and it was there ...... guess it pays to follow
the recommended procedures in the pdf.
Have yet to determine if anything else is dicked up.

Thank you.
After reseting my monitor 4 times, now the problem is solved.
Great Hint!

I wonder if this problem is only limited to monitors that allow its settings
to be adjusted via an application program. AFAIK many Samsung and LG
monitors have this "OSD-less" adjustment feature, but not all monitors do.

You are welcome Dirk, although I can't take credit. I read that on a forum.
Apparently many people were having the same problem with these new drivers.
