Default RC2 NVIDIA Driver


We all know that the RC2 NVIDIA driver (96.85) is messed up. Well i read on
the NVIDIA forums that you can fix the problems with the driver by quote:

You can disable DDI Threading and may help. Thats helped for me.

Disable:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Direct3D]
"DisableThreadedDDI"=dword:00000001

Enable:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Direct3D]
"DisableThreadedDDI"=dword:00000000
-End Quote

he said that doing this made all of the graphical corruption (that we found
was fixed in window mode) fixed in full screen and without losing frame rate
that we normaly would lose in window mode. But I have know idea where to go,
what to do, or what it means. So if you know how to do this please explain in
detail how to do this.

You need to run regedit.exe... Windowskey+R will bring up the Run prompt,
then type "regedit"... navigate the tree that he described to you and there
you go :-)
