    The CoolBits o/c feature doesn't work properly...

    I did the registry edit to enable CoolBits, so I can change my video card's frequencies. The problem is, it will only let me set my card's memory up to 100mhz. It's like 166mhz by default! Nice overclock!

    Does anyone know how I can fix that?

    Depending on operating system ,you have to find the registry key ,and edit it ,to the max that you want.

    If its at 100 and you want 300 ,edit to 300.

    Its in the Nvidia key usually under video.

    In the nVidia folder in the registry, all I did was add a DWORD value called CoolBits to the NVTWEAK folder and make it a value of 3. That enabled CoolBits. I have no idea how to set the maximum frequencies...
