RivaTuner is the most powerful tweaking utility for NVIDIA display adapters running under Windows 98 / Windows 98 SE / Windows ME / Windows 2000 and Windows XP. The purpose of this utility is to give you access to all the undocumented features of the Detonator drivers. All versions of the Detonator drivers have a lot of undocumented registry entries. Some of them don?t affect anything, but there are some that are very useful.
Minor bugfixes:
Fixed crash on dual-head display adapters with display connected to the secondary RAMDAC under Windows 2000. Duty cycle is no longer rounded improperly when trying to apply a fan speed matching with the current one. Daylight saving time correction is no longer applied when viewing .hml files. Minor UI fixes.
What's new:
Added ForceWare 75.xx driver family support. Updated databases for Detonator and ForceWare driver families. Added databases for ForceWare 67.66, 71.22, 71.24, 71.25, 71.40, 71.50, 71.80, 71.81, 71.84, 71.90 and 75.90 drivers. Added Catalyst 5.1 and 5.2 detection. Updated Catalyst 5.1 and 5.2 certified SoftR9x00, ATIOverclockingAntiprotection and ATIOverclockingAntiprotectionRuntime patch scripts. Added NV4x-compatible driver-level overlay color correction. Added "OpenGL version string override" option to the "Compatibility" tab of "OpenGL tweaks" dialog for the Detonator 27.xx and newer drivers. This option is useful for troubleshooting and can be used to solve problems with some incorrectly written OpenGL application, expecting harcoded OpenGL version string. For example, this option can be used to launch "The Chronicles of Riddick - Escape from Butcher Bay", which expects OpenGL 1.3 and doesn't work properly on OpenGL 2.0 drivers like ForceWare 75.90. Now the list of application profiles for the ForceWare 56.xx and newer drivers in the main tab and the list of profiles accessible via the "Scan registry for existing profiles" button are sorted in ascending order. Now RivaTuner displays / adjusts internal model ID instead of hardwired PCI DeviceID in the NVStrap driver configuration tab when custom graphics adapter identification mode is selected on display adapters with BR02 PCI-E to AGP or AGP to PCI-E bridge. Added %RT% and %RTFolder% macro names support to RivaTuner's launcher tab. These macro names can be specified to launch RivaTuner itself or to specify path to RivaTuner's folder. Updated ATI and NVIDIA graphics processors' PCI DeviceID database. Added an ability of starting RivaTuner's launcher items via the command line by the name instead of GUID. The syntax is: RivaTuner.exe /L:"", where is a name of the item you want to launch. Take a note that this syntax is ambiguous, as it is allowed to create multiple items with the same name, so use it with caution. Improved low-level graphics subsystem diagnostic module:
