 argon | Nvidia software. Don't Remove if you need multiple desktop functionality |
| Colin Jensen | Very few to no one needs a mouse, monitor, whatever driver. Uninstall them all and you won't even notice the difference. See also: Link |
| Mesh | Nvidia software - not worth removing if you use it, not dangerous at all (badly constructed computers don't count) |
| Lew | Running multiple monitors, so I probably need it. |
 Douglas Spencer | Nothing except that it should not be on my system |
| Btimon | Does it safe?? |
| Chris | NVIDIA nView Desktop and Window Manager |
| Don | NVidia utility. Primarily needed for enhanced dual monitor support. Very nice. |
| | I keep getting a Wizard Error (There is already a copy of the nview wizaed running) when I boot up on XP Professional...not sure what's up with that???? |
| major j | Nvidia software. Don't Remove used for multiple desktop or laptop LCD and CRT |
| Terces | part of nvidia |
| mose | nVIDIA's nView DEsktop manager - Keep only if you use |
| Paul Klinkenberg | Illustrator.exe sometimes crashes when I maximize the illustrator screen. The appname when it happens is illustrator.exe, and the modname is nview.dll. See also: Link |
 Longbow | It is an unneeded and uncessary obstruction. |
 Dave | in C:\WINDOWS, slows everything down, v. irritating (XP HOME, top PC) |
| bn | i've installed the Nview.dll but i cant choose Nview in the nView desktop |
| Chavito | AD ARGON: I installed it, and lost multiple display functionality, removed it and it works fine again. |
| Lyn | NVidia nview is desktop manager that is part of Windows auto update and a pain the royal #@$. It is in your control panel and a system 32 file and there is no removal tool. Any ideas? |
| | it makes pop ups |
| ColdSteel | in C:\WINDOWS, slows everything down, v. irritating (XP HOME/PRO) TRASHWARE get rid of it! |
| Mad Hatter | It likes to crash IE6.02 SP1 |
| Steve SJ | I am running two monitors so I guess I need it? |
| | fette 2 bildschirme.clone mode alta |
| My Opinion (for what it counts!) | It came pre-installed on my laptop (along with XP Home) and I never experienced any probs. Takes a bit of getting used to, tweeking and configuring etc. but a part from that its all good. Only thing I would say is that I probably will slow down your PC a bit if it isn't brilliant spec, so maybe the compromise is to disable it when not in use?! Oh and its much better than Microsoft's version ;) |
| Iceman | My System run - I have no problems |
| J Z | Since I have updated through Windows Update, and installed some nVidia driver, my computer crashes when i try to adjust the video settings on the display properties. Help please |
| Frank | NVIDIA nView Desktop and Window Manager |
| Shalianahe | Nvidia software |
| Chris | If have multiple monitors attached to a nvidia card you simple can't go without it.... |
| Matze | kept chrashing my PC with CPU-Usage 100% after some time (around 10hours of running). Renaming of the file (is in C:\windows\system32) solved the problem. Lost Multiple Desktop Support, Dual Monitor Support still works. Its actually from Nvidia. My Sys is WinXP Pro. |
| Jamie Phillips | If you are doing any software development - In my case VS 2003 VC++ on Windows XP it can cause particualr nightmares!! |
| | geForce treiber |
| geefle | Caused Win explorer file menu to hang, also right-click on desktop. With regedit delete HKCR/Directory/Background/shellex/00nView See also: Link |
| Nvidia Tech. | this is used by nvidia's interactive desktop, this allows the desktop to do more modes with the monitor, keeps it running smooth between applications.if you find it slows your computer it may be due to the fact taht your computers video card is not set up correctly, please install the card with all of its software to make use of the cards full potential |
| Stewart | The file "nview.dll" should probably not be removed. The sluggishness mentioned by several is likely caused by "nwiz.exe," a startup application, which can be safely disabled by those without multiple monitors. Crashes after an install is likely caused by a corrupt download. Go to the computer manufacturer's web site (not the nVIDIA web site which has generic drivers, not ones perhaps modified specifically for your computer - as the nVIDIA site says, especially so for laptop users) to download and install the latest nVIDIA drivers. |
| Sean | I was having trouble with CAD software and did a little snooping around with Process Explorer. Turns out this nview.dll attaches itself to every process that has a dialog (any sort of windows-shell based GUI window). If nview.dll didn't agree with something in the dialog (i have no idea what that might be) it would cause the process to "freeze" and send the CPU usage to a constant 100%. I did as Matze said and changed the name of the file. Seems to have worked fine; I have not got any errors so far, either. Windows XP Pro SP 2 on a Toshiba Laptop. NVidia 6600 Go. |
| ej lee | Gives me error messages, disruptive at the least. |
| danyplus | NVIDIA Geforce graphics driver |
| HuckleBerryFin | erweitert meine Nvidia-Graficcard 5600 um einige Zusätze; |
| Cooldude | I have found some of my vaildated development programs crash and now my system cleanup programs wont work properly.( The error messages refer to nview.dll) .It seems to have got worse the more my disk fills (now 83%). |
| | Nvidia Desktop |
| | It's part of the nVidia drivers. It's not dangerous, nor resource heavy. It gives multiple monitor options and other nView options (transparency on dragged windows and the taskbar), etc. Left click and select "nViewProperties" and you'll get a new window with options. That is what this is and controls. It's not dangerous. |
| | Make sure to remove before inserting an ATI card, I didn't and I installed the ATI drivers over top of the NVIDIA ones. I later uninstalled NVIDIA in it's entirety. Unfortunatly nView is stuck in my control panel. I'd like to say NVIDIA software is crude in comparison to ATI. (hydravision rocks) If anyone knows a way to force remove it contact me. |
| Ralf Kaun | auch möglich KEYLOGGER der AV Programme abschaltet |
| Dave | with reserve that video, screen drivers update can disable older software - experienced with photo album and photo manipulation software with reserve that video, screen drivers update can disable older software - experienced with photo album and photo manipulation software |
| NJB | I don't like it. Crashes MSN and Explorer constantly. Not dangerous, but I wouldn't keep it if I was you. |
| Doug | Caused application hang with 100% cpu usage. Had to shut off power to restart pc. |
| ShambleS | Comes with nvida displays.. Unless thers a problem you dont need to remove it, constant locking up of programs followed by a yes/no prompt by nview IS a problem.. Thats why i renamed the nview.dll in c:\windows\system32 Nvida make good cards Bad drivers/software |
| Anon | Nvidia GeForce driver...though it can be annoying sometimes, it is of no harm to the CPU. |
| Tidididi | Looks like a "dynamic error link library" to me. |
| Xaviss | es un parte del driver de las tarjetas nvidia,proporciona acceso rapido en la barra de herramientas a las funciones de cambio de pantalla,resoluciones,refresco,etc |
