Via software.

The most popular RivaTuner http://www.guru3d.com/rivatuner/

I tried to use Riva Tuner 2.0 RC15.8 to overclock my AGP 7800GS. I check the driver settings and it says nview.dll, nvshell.dll, nvwdmcpl.dll not found. I can't find the clock frequency tab.

This is kind of weird because when i use it for my old 9600pro, it has that extra tab and fuction for overclocking. I've attached some screen shots thumbnails below. Pls help..





I've already removed the old driver and installed the latest forceware but the problem remains..

Pls Help! Thanks..

Did you install the newest Riva Tuner?

Try with coolbits and Atitool.

Ther is a bunch other software for oc.

Does ATi Tool work with nVidia cards? I would suggest Coolbits, its just changes a number in your registry to enable software overclocking alredy built in with your nVidia drivers.

Open RivaTuner.cfg ( You can find this file in RT's folder) with notepad.exe.

In [GPU_10DE] section, you will see " NV47 = 90h-9Fh" , add " , F5h" at the end of this line . Then it will look like :" NV47 = 90h-9Fh ,F5h".
