Just installed the newest drivers for my 8800GTS v158.19 and now I no longer have fan control or ability to view my GPU temperature. Anybody else seeing this with new drivers? Had been using NTune and I even reinstalled it. Everybody knows these cards run warm to hot so what gives?

I noticed this as well. Ntune relased a newer verion just the other day:

So I downloaded that, but still no luck with controlling the fan speed. You can still monitor the temp but you will need to got to the Nvidia control panel, then under performance "Launch NVmonitor" At the bottom right corner of NVMonitor you will see an arrow to expand the program. Click on the arrow and you can see the temps for the GPU. It is a little odd but I will team with the engineers and see what can be done.

Thanks XFX Support. I too installed the lastes NTune hoping it would fix the lack of fan support but was very disapointed. Ican't seem to find the little arrow you mentioned in the bottom right corner???

Rivatuner V2.0 has fan speed control, GPU temp monitor, lots of great stuff.
I use this now with the 158.19 driver with my 8800GTX and it works great.

Ok, I'll have to give it a try.

Latest NVIDIA drivers are once again allowing fan control via NTune.

That's too bad, but at least the latest drivers have the support of Fan Control in nTune.

Now, regarding the GPU Temp, I'm personally using Everest to monitor 24/7 my GPU temps (as well as my mobo and CPU temp... )
