nTune woes

Post by Aratae »

I believe nTune was locking up my PC shortly after booting up, CPU usage would skyrocket then everything would lock up and I'd have to hard boot to restart things.

So I uninstalled it, and so far everything as been good (no crashes).

Anyone else know of that problem?

Thx for any info.

nTune can be a little buggy. You can use Rivatuner to tweak your card.

Ditto on the Riva Tuner .

For SLi then its nTune , but even then nTune never seems to save your settings after any shut-down or reboot .

Maybe they will get it right one of these days .

I just got rivatuner and there are so many options I am afraid of messing something up. nTune just gives you the basics.

Rivatuner works like a charm. Just make sure to read the instructions. Checking out a good guide on the net is very helpful also.
