Guest jayman Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 hi there, HP bios won't allow overclocking as most of you are aware but is 169.04 the latest drivers that will allow it? I tried upgrading to 177.41 and they reset when you try to O/C so i'm back to 169.04. I'm not too keen on flashing bios. Any reason why the settings in 169.04 can't be incorporated into newer drivers to allow o/c??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipper Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 hi there, HP bios won't allow overclocking as most of you are aware Your assumption is too general; I have no probs to overclock my HP/Compaq 8710w after I got rid of the original locked drivers and their remnants. Just now I'm running 177.40 (original INF) and happily overclocking via Control Panel/NTune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
^nox Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 I think he ment HP users who have nVidia 8600m GS , that has been known to stop overclocking after 169.04 driver... Though you pose a good question , is it possible to use 169.04 and incorporate it to the new drivers so we can overclock them ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew55 Posted September 21, 2008 Report Share Posted September 21, 2008 You should try different o/c software like riva tuner. Chances are the fault lies with ntune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
