Minor Annoyance with new Driver

<< < (2/2)

jrd:
Okay, this is apparently Nvidia spam, pure and simple.
Two ways to fix it:
1) Turn off the media center (tray icon). Recommended, as it serves little purpose and is yet another program slurping up RAM and CPU cycles.
2) Edit the registry as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\MediaCenterTray]
"NvCplDisableBalloonNotifications"=dword:00000001

If you do 1 2 is not needed of course.

jrd:
If you're not familiar with regedit:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\MediaCenterTray]
"NvCplDisableBalloonNotifications"=dword:00000001


Save the above as something like nvidiaspam.reg using notepad, double-click it, and let it import. Next logon the pop-up should be gone.

Thanks, Jordi, I think I'll just turn off the media center thingy. I thought it would be helpful for updates, but since it never told me there were even new drivers available :P it seems pretty damn useless, all right.
