sysfader.exe

[EasyFeelings]

have a client who has been having a problem with their computer freezing and
rebooting. this is an WinXP system, fresh installed to a bigger harddrive
and added a new NIC.
problem started about a week or so after the fresh install, and in trying to
track down the problem i noticed SYSFADER.exe in the running apps, only
noticed it once and was unable to locate it anywhere on the drive after
that.
guess the question is: does anyone know what SYSFADER.exe is?

Well first I guess I should let you know, I did that search and found no
real info before I posted.
All I found was a lot of people with grief from SYSFADER, and no actual
answers.
I tried the ideas I found there, some had been done before this started,
such as hibernate being shut off, I also tried the transition one. i have
run highjackthis, A/V programs, and spybot search & destroy, even tried
searching for "sysfader" (including hiden files), and this computer doesn't
use MSN IM.
This is why i posted a request for help.
I hoped that someone in this NG would have knowledge about this.

From a post at www.wildersecurity.com

Sysfader is not a virus. It seems to be installed with nVidia drivers.
My display driver is provided by nVidia. It offers all kinds of options and
one of them is the culprit. The solution is Go to START > CONTROL PANEL >
DISPLAY > NVIDIA NVIEW DESKTOP MANAGER > tab DESKTOP MANAGEMENT > PROPERTIES

tab APPEARANCE > EFFECTS and uncheck the FADE EFFECT option. God knows

what it does but unchecking it solves the problem.

already tried that.
I have done the search and read the posts, and tried stuff that
applied.
all I found was allot of people guessing and posting links to other forums,
that still are not answering the question.
Am I to assume that no one has a clue about this?
Mean I have spent hours reading forums that have more symptoms than there
are porn sites, and almost as many ideas as to a fix.
Most of these don't even remotely apply in my case.
