PowerStrip on Windows NT 4.0 SP6

[reboot12]

Latest version working on WinNT 4.0 is 3.63 but this not support write EDID. I tested other versions and they install OK but do not want to work:

• 3.64.555 - nothing but pstrip.exe in task manager
• 3.65 - nothing but pstrip.exe in task manager
• 3.75 - nothing but pstrip.exe in task manager
• 3.83 - Access violation
• 3.85 - Access violation

P.S. All these versions work in WinXP and I can write EDID.

It is the only program of its type to support multiple graphics cards from multiple chipset vendors, simultaneously, under >>>

every Windows operating system from Windows 95 to the x64-bit edition of Windows 7 <<<

Looks like their compatibility claims are bogus. I have a few older versions than you listed and also 3.70 (last good: with normal AltGr function for key shortcuts), but never ran any on WinNT 4.0, only Win2000...

PowerStrip 3.7x runs on WinNT 4.0 but requires a supported graphics card - I test PCIe NVIDIA 6200 TurboCache with DVI-HDMI cable. For the program to work, you need to delete or rename the nvgpio.dll file to nvgpio.bak

I use NVIDIA driver 71-84-winnt4-international.exe. PowerStrip detects and write EEPROM EDID without any problems - unless it is write-protected, of course.

It can only program 128 bytes EDID:

P.S. Only PowerStrip 3.85 can program EDID 256 bytes but under WinXP - tested same NVIDIA 6200 graphics card but only with vga.sys driver. The NVIDIA driver cannot be installed !!!
