Anyone Knows How To Disable Turbocache on 7100GS?

[negrostmthws]

This is my first post so first of all, HELLO TO EVERYONE ..
Well, the problem is that, i recently bought a Geforce nVidia 7100GS 128MB PCI-E with TurboCache, and even though the videos are working better than before, and I can see best graphics than before, It works like $H137.. The piint is that i only have 1GB of RAM Memory, and the turbocace is eating another extra 256MB (so im having 384 MB on my Video Card, 256 + 128).. The Point is that when i open a game(any one, from FlatOut to Bejeweled Blitz), it works TOO DAMN SLOW. Because i Have no RAM memory left.
I tried disabling turbocache(IT CAN BE DONE IN WINDOWS XP), using RivaTuner (wich makes an entry called "RMDDisableRenderToSysmem" and it's value is 1 (01 00 00 00 in HEX). But it seems that it doesn't work under Vista or 7). I tried using like 20 diferent drivers versions, from 185 to 195 i think, and i couldn't make it work..
The question, Does anyone knows how to disable it in windows 7?? Can i make or edit another registry entry? Can I delete some dlls so it doesn't work? Because it's driving me mad, it's working better without the Video Card than with it.


Maybe Usefull Data:
Motherboard: Asus P5KPL-AM SE
RAM Memory: 1 GB
Windows 7 Professional
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 2.66 GHz

Thank you vrey much

You are asking too much of a marginal system. Even if you were to disable cache it will still run out of memory and start using the page file. That is why it is so slow. There isnt anything you can do about it except add more ram or stop playing games.

Did you run the upgrade adviser to see if your system could run win 7 before you installed it??

I did it, It always worked perfectly fine.. Games worked with better performance with the original 64MB onboard card.. I know that it can be disabled in Win XP, but i wasn't able to do it under win 7.. I was just asking if anyone knew if it was possible in this OS, By any methods.. Or can I make turbocache tu use pagefile memory instead of RAM memory?
Thanks ...

No One Knows? Or anybody has an idea?

In what part of the registery did you try the RMDisableRenderToSysMem ? Just the CurrentControlSet, or ControlSet001 & ControlSet002 also.

 

[negrostmthws]

I Changed it in CurrentControlSet and ControlSet001, I dont have entries in ControlSet002.
But it seems that it doesn't work because i still have that amount of shared RAM memory for the GPU. Thanks..

I have similar thing? with my GF9600GT, the card only has 512mb, but W7 says I have 2.3gb available. Hmm...

 

[negrostmthws]

Yeah, it weird.. I have read that Windows Vista doesn't support TurboCache, but it allows allocating memory to the video card, if it needs it. So I think that it has to be the same in Windows 7, that's why editing the registry(rmdisablerendersysmem) doesnt work. So it has to be some way to Disable this in Vista and in 7, shared memory for GPU's.. I will keep searching.. Thanks for the answer, some answer is better than none at all

I was just looking around my BIOS, and it looks like I have hybrid SLI between the onboard GF8200 & GF9600GT.
