Nvidia Apply Changes Dialog Comfirmation. : Othor Games

» Thu Dec 08, 2011 1:26 pm

I was wondering (since this forum has some resourceful people) if there is a registry setting to disable (doesn't matter to me if it's complicated) http://home.comcast.net/~livilanic/home/concepts/images/nv.jpg confirmation dialog box?

The reason it annoys me. Is that I use another display in the other room. So when I change to that display. I have to run to the other room, turn on that display and make sure I hit yes in the allotted time (20secs). And I have to do that with a wireless 360 controller. Hehe. So it would make it so much easier without it. I can't clone display's. I use one card (GTX 260 that doesn't have S-Video) for my monitor, and another card (800GT that has S-Video) for my other display. So if I enable both I only get extended desktops. So even if I made the other display my primary, I'd still have to deal with the conformation dialog.

Solution (for now):

I ended up just changing the YES - BS_PUSHBUTTON to BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON (http://home.comcast.net/~livilanic/home/concepts/images/yes.jpg), which was editable in the http://home.comcast.net/~livilanic/home/concepts/images/dlgap.jpg (C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\Display) with http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/. Which enables me to just hit enter (A on the 360 controller w/http://www.electracode.com/4/joy2key/JoyToKey%20English%20Version.htm).

I can't seem to find a command/control to auto-accept a button without user input. Not even sure if it's possible, but at least this work's for now. Hehe.

If anyone reads this? lol And you know of the command/control to allow a button to be auto-accepted without user input let me know. Cheers.

I attempted to contact Nvidia about this, but was unsuccessful. I couldn't understand what the guy was trying to tell me. But in the end, he said it wasn't possible. :shrug: I remember back in the day that a friend of mine was able to tweak just about anything through settings in the registry. So yeah...not anymore?

Anyway, I was wondering (since this forum has some resourceful people) if there is a registry setting to disable (doesn't matter to me if it's complicated) http://home.comcast.net/~livilanic/home/concepts/images/nv.jpg confirmation dialog box? Is it even part of Nvidia or just hooked to the OS (I have W7x64)? I'm confident in the changes I make, so it's only an annoyance to me. I've attempted a google search, but I'm [censored] when it come's to what exactly I'm looking for/supposed to put in the search bar.

Appreciate the help, if any.

I always assumed that the confirmation box with the countdown was a fail-safe, just incase you changed a display setting and suddenly lost the display and couldn't see anything.

I believe it is. It's like I said though. I'm confident in my changes. I don't do anything accidentally. When it come's to changing those setting's.

can't you use a keyboard & mouse in the room you want the change to take place in?

Yes, I will be once I get my HTPC setup going. But atm I only have one PC, so I'd still have to run into the other room and grab the mouse (using the 360 controller doesn't take much longer) and click yes before the timer ran out though. Hehe.
