nVidia GeForce 6600 256mb AGP - Forceware ver 91.31

Since installing this driver update, every time I boot my system I get
a Tooltip message that "SLI has been disabled." What the F***! SLI
should only be if I had more than one SLI compliant card, which I do
not.

Under 3D Settings, SLI Configuration, there is nothing but a reference
to nVidia WEB site and it looks like a SLI card promo. There is no
way to turn this SLI off.

How do I turn OFF this error message?

Google is your friend. There's at least eight threads on this topic
already.

Actually, for the frist time ever, using nVidia Tech Support FAQ and
phrasing the question correctly, I found the solution. They have a
Registry fix (.REG file) that disables the SLI Balloon. This means
that they must have had many users compline about this.

The reason I posted the question was the first time I searched nVidia
it did not return what I was looking for.

Their fix also tells me they goofed in NOT having this disable feature
in v91.31 driver's "nVidia Control Panel." Since the drivers
recognized the new registry entry, it was already in the code.

Thanks

The fix is in the 91.33 beta that was released within a few days of 91.31.
