I've enabled new user registration for the next 24-hours. Reply back here when you get a new acct established so I can "raise shields" again.

We had to do this because the forums were getting bombarded with spam-bots. We were deleting about 50+ accounts per day.
Forum registrations are now locked until we get a chance to upgrade the server to the latest version.
No need to re-register. You already have an account.
I've promoted you to the "testing team", at least temporarily. This will give you access to the thread cdob is referring to.

*Edit
Nevermind. That acct is now banned. Remove the account information from this site!

compromised? Its not banned, so I think it has not been used for spamming?!

As I said before I tried to register, but I never received the mail.

btw this policy is quite strange - trying to register now, the software only tells me "This forum is not accepting new registrations." - So a regular user does not see, that this is for spam reasons and that he should ask an admin for an account. (I dont even know if (s)he has any possibility to ask an admin.

Ask Nvidia driver author why a strange approach is choosen. http://www.nvidia.com

There is a registry testing approach at DriverPacks.net testing section.
I doubt access given to a compromised bug... account.

http://forum.driverpacks.net/viewtopic. … 557#p46557
Can you ask a admin to get a private account and access to testing section?

the answer is that certain drivers do not directly support Text Mode, AKA the "F6" drivers, AKA DOS. Of the thousands of mass storage drivers we include only a hand full have this issue.

the command PnP, 5 forces text mode to use the PnP driver in text mode.
this is just lazyness on the part of the suppliers of the driver, that is to say they distribute an incomplete driver, one that lacks text mode support.

To find more info search the forum for related terms like "setupreg.hiv" "PnpInterface"

To put it simply... Erik says, "Nvidia drivers suck!"

OK, that's discouraging. Thank you for testing. If none of them work, then cdob's method may be your only hope.

The last line "reg.exe unload HKLM\loaded_SYSTEM" should unload registry file, hence not mounted anymore.

Run regedit.exe, does exist a hive "HKLM\loaded_SYSTEM" ?
Unload the hive.
