enabled the new cp with that and i can set SLI on in it. after i do that i tried old cp again and it wouldnt want to allow sli still (eventho it was in fact enabled). in games it seems the SLI works (tried only css for now but the fps are withing same range as with ngo modified 91.47)

Glad to hear it worked for you. Thank Nvidia for introducing new bugs to their old Control Panel, and forcing us to use that bloated new control panel.

yep, aditionally to the crap sli performance in some games....

There is a Problem in the ControlPanel of the NGO 158.22 - I can't control the AF Settings...the Box is still marked and Setting on "Application"...can't do anything.

Could someone help?

Greetings

Frank

That sucks, but its actually better that the AF setting stays on 'Application' because this means that it will let the program you are running choose the proper setting.

my NV CP won't start with neither the Normal nor the Compatibility installation mode. guess i'll be going back to 2.9792 for now...

Make sure you're using v15822b and the new control panel.

Hi guys.

I've just installed the 158.22b, and I hoped for some sort of solution from this.

*Fixed video overlay bug

Movies played in QuickTime with hw-accel. are still corrupted.

Edit: Otherwise stable & fast.

Tried the 158.22 drivers two times. Last time uninstalled everything used drivercleaner but the performance on 7800GS is only 50% of what should be expected. Looks like there is no harware acceleration.
Are you sure these drivers support the 7800GS, since I do not see them listed.
The new 160.03 mentions the 7800 GS, so any plans to make these available?

the b version is new or up from the start ? I have experienced a quite grave problem with these drivres lately: ever since i installed them and if i enable SLI i get random lockups (in fact the computer restarts abruptly) when closing warcraft3 and alt tabbing in call of duty 2. It didnt happen once with coutnerstrike source tho. Might it be taht those games use the same SLI rendering method which is different to that of CSS?
thanks in advance
