I have an Elsa Gladiac Ultra card and when I enable the coolbits feature and try to overclock the card it will not keep the settings after a reboot. Now I don't even think the overclocking feature works because I can set the memory/chip clock to the max and the card should crash and not work at all but it seems to work fine but I see no difference in FPS.
 
Now before you say anything I'm using the 6.49 drivers and these drivers overclocked my Geforce 2 card without a problem and the settings stayed in place even after a reboot.
 
Any ideas, or another program I could use. Power Strip 2.78 does not work for overclocking the ultra card but it works ok for the Geforce 2 card?
 
Driver suggestions another program for overclocking would be great if anyone has an ideas.
 
Thanks,

I had the same thing happen with a GeForce SDR from a Dell PC. I could use any setting, but no difference. I put in a VisionTek GeForce SDR, and it worked fine. Same drivers (6.31) and same hardware config. In addition, I don't think you have enough processor to make the overclocking worth it, besides, the memory is running so close the max spec that it probably wont go any further.

I had the same problem with 6.47 Detonators drivers so that may be a characteristic of that series.
 
The 6.62 drivers overclock correctly with coolbits and hardware tab after replacement of NvCpl.dll by the one included with 6.31.
