Have you ever encountered this problem? well if you did,this thread is for you. Well,i've encountered this problem sometimes ago,but after about 6 months searching the net,i found a simple solution.(a very simple solution) Instead of uninstalling-and-installing your Drivers,just follow these steps listed below. First,in Windows 7 and 8,set windows explorer to "Show hidden folders,subfolders,and files).If you don't,you won't find the ProgramData folder. Done? Let's advance to the next step. Just go to C:ProgramData/NVIDIA Corporation/ Then,delete (or,make backup of) the "Drs" folder,then create a new one.(well,maybe just rename the "Drs" folder into anything else,like "Drs Backup",then create a new folder named "Drs").Make sure to set Everyone to Full Control in the security tab for your freshly-built "Drs" folder. Now you're good to go,now you can save your 3D settings again. If the NVIDIA Control Panel refuses to save your 3D settings again (Well,mostly it won't),just repeat the steps above.(Don't worry,this is safe) Tested and worked on Win8.1 x64 (my PC) Hope it helps people. Credits to Spirit Warden for helping me in the past.

_____Aw dang, I really should be gettin' started on my next quickie mod. ANYWAY! Let ME tell YOU something about that freakin' NVIDIA control panel. Control panel, configuration, whatever. It sucks. It sucks harder than Taylor Swift with steroid-injected jaws! Not save my custom graphics settings? Hell, I can't even access the control panel WITHOUT THE THING CRASHING! _____Maybe it's because of the Frankenstein-monster styled setup of the lab's main machine. Here's the most important info on the setup: Windows 10 machine (DirectX12), NVidia 970, connected to three monitors. Yes, we've got a triple-headed cyber-beast. I SHOULD be thankful that Windows 10 works with a triple-panel setup AT ALL! What I'm not grateful for is having to reinstall the graphics driver every time I try to access the control panel! _____That's right. Worse comes to worse, I REINSTALL the drivers. Just the drivers, mind. Use the CUSTOM setup. 'Cause, y'see, Nvidia used to get sneaky with the "Express" install and give you "free" copies of garbage games you wouldn't otherwise want! Express installation, huh? Y'mean, express train to Hell! Okay, so reinstall drivers if Nvidia's panel gets stupid. Now I'm gettin' the HELL outta here to work on this-here next mod. See ya!

Maybe it is just you.I have windows 8.1 and it runs fine. Well mostly people with "MONSTER" rig have some issues,(using 4k monitor,beast vga,10 TB HDD,16GB RAM,whatever) like crashing,freezing bla bla bla. I have a laptop and that's more than enough for me.
