    Overclocking 7800gt with Riva Tuner???

    I installed Riva Tuner to try and overclock my 7800gt. However i am having some trouble, it says the graphics card is there but it does not register anything with it. It says there is no clock speeds, and all settings are locked saying they are determined by VGA bios. any ideas how to sort it out? i am running vista 64bit
