Nvidia control panel missing performance tab..

Hi All,

 

I just got my 730 on tuesday and I have already messed it up ;^ )

 

I was in the nvidia control panel and accepted the eula to get the perfromance tab. I did some updates and the first thing I found was the Chassis option disappeared??  I uninstalled all the nvidia tools etc and installed the ESA (from support.dell.com) and reinstalled the nvida tools shutdown and now all my LED's went dark and I have no performance tab at all (yes i went to advanced). Am I missing an install package? Should I only use the Dell drivers or should I use the Nvidia drivers? Also does the perfromance tab come with the ESA setup or one of the nvidia setups?

 

Confused......

 

thanks

    I ended up having to load the ESA from the CD that came with the system. It did not work when downloaded for some reason.

    That happened to me, best bet is to download it from Nvida

    I will download the Nvidia tools and try again, but will it have the Chassis option? I think this is how I lost that in the first place.

    The performance tab will come and go,  sometimes if you load the software before your computer has fully loaded it will not show up.  Sometimes it just does not feel  like loading.  Either way its a piece of
