I have a 8800GTS 640 and I'm running Win Vista 32-bit. Trying to overclock my card. Did it fine in XP but not in Vista.

I've tried a few versions of ATI Tool, none work. nTune doesn't keep the overclock, resets upon reboot. I tried Rivatuner back in the day but it didn't work with the card either. What can I do?

... which also works w/ the latest v2.06 of RT. The download of RT includes a signed driver for Vista (RivaTuner206Drv.rtu). When asked during the install "Do you want to install available updates for RivaTuner?", hit the Yes button... which in turn will load the signed driver.
