Win7Ult.-7900GTO drivers won't install/No access to Nvidia control panel
Hello DAL, 
Back again with some driver and software issues. I need to turn down my hardware acceleration a little to get my encoder program to work properly.
When attempting to access the Nvidia Control panel:
I have no desktop>right cick option
I have the NvCpl files, but they won't work. I double click and they do nothing.
I have no options (that i know of) in control panel for Nvidia
I have no options or listing in msconfig or uninstall for nvidia
When I go to install new drivers, so I can get the control panel working. I tried to install the newest and an older driver but it says that the driver I'm trying to install is not compatible. I tried a couple different compatibility modes but couldn't get anything to work.
When I tried to install the new drivers I did the following steps:
Uninstall in device manager
Reboot
Attempt to Install new/old driver
Drivers I tried to install:
(185.85_desktop_win7_32bit_english_whql)
(191.07_desktop_win7_winvista_32bit_english_whql(2 ))
My desktop view-
Yfrog - desktopu
Same different sizes::

I'm stumped. The driver works fine but I don't have the software.
Any help or suggestions would be...........DYNO-MITE!

The old drivers need to be uninstalled via the Control Panel > Programs and Features > Nvidia > Display Only
Afterwords try to reinstall the latest driver.
-
I do not have Control Panel > Programs and Features > Nvidia > Display Only path
I get no results for control panel search for Nvidia.
-
Windows control panel.
START > Control Panel > etc.
If you do not see it right click START and choose Properties > Start Menu > Customize > Control Panel > Display as a Menu
