Nvidia ControlPanel from 158.22 crashes when clicking on old game profile
 
Hi,
as I wrote in the headline, I get the ctd everytime I click an old profile
that I added with an older driver (158.19). So I cannot delete it and I
cannot add it again, also an ctd.

My system specs:
Athlon64 4000+
A8NSLI Deluxe
2GB Ram
2 x Nvidia 8800GTS 640 in SLI mode
WinXP

Thanks in advance for your help
Rolf

Try this control panel replacement that specifically addresses poor
nvidia game profile support.

I used nhancer, but the install of the newest version crashes with the error
message: cannot delete older version

I had contact with Mr. Korndörfer, but all his hints didn't work for me.

Was one of the suggestions to remove/replace your NVAPPS.XML file? This
is where your profiles are stored and could very well be the source of
your problem.

\windows\system32\nvapps.xml

Had the same problem. You can do a clean install of your drivers to get
rid of the custom profiles or delete the bad profile with nHancer. I
don't recommend adding profiles with other utilities at this point, they
don't seem to work with the new drivers. Everytime I tried to create a
new profile with nHancer, it would crash the new control panel (Sedona)
when selecting the exe or changing an antialiasing setting.

Ah yes I forgot about that. You can extract the original one from your
drivers by running the expand command on the .xm_ in your Nvidia drivers
folder. For example:

C:\NVIDIA\Win2KXP\158.19expand NvApps.xm_ nvapps.xml

Then copy the new .xml file to your system32 folder. This is the same
as deleting your profiles (if you were able to).

nHancer 2.2.3 claims to be compatible with 150+ but I wouldn't discount
nVidia having broken something.

It's not completely ok: I can add new profiles, but I can only give them the
general attributes, no specific ones.

Thanks in advance again for your help
