Nvidia classic control panel, how to bring it back.

For a couple of months now, nVidia brought a new control panel in forceware, letting choose between the old and new one.
But now they just disabled the old one and people using coolbits are left in the cold.
There is a little workaround for this.
Go into your run prompt and write "regedit".

After go into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / Software / Nvidia Corporation / Global / NvCplApi / Policies
Now right click in the right pane : new DWORD value and name it : SedonaDisable


Now right click the new DWORD value, Modify, and then set value data to "2"
Save and close the registry editor and you're done!
Go into your control panel to see if it worked.
Right clik on your desktop / properties settings / advanced...
If the hack worked you will be asked to choose between the classic and new control panel.

This only works in XP.
Enjoy!

The logitech G5 new look

After the G7 makeover it's now time for the G5 to take a paint job.
As you can see they brought back the second thumb button (mx-series).



Not a major upgrade but if you do not own a laser mouse it's a no brainer..
