Friends--
I am using Precision V 1.7.0.0, and running the 119.062 NVidia driver on my Win 7 EVGA 790iFTW, Gtx260SSC. I have had problems even getting the gpu temps to post with previous drivers, so, this works well for me.
But--I find it hard to believe that there is NO choice in the pgm to switch from a Celsius to Fahrenheit display. Is this so? And, is there a good combination of Vid driver/Precision version that will provide readings in F? (I am an old dog). Thanks. Laser.

i am hving the same issue, i cant find the mentioned entries in the registry so if someone could point me to where they are, would be awesome. i am running win7 retail, nvidia 191.07 and the latest precision release... every thing worked fine untill i update the driver and the precision app, now, like others ihave to option for gpu temp in the tab "monitoring".

Great advise, though just using one or the other steps didn't quite work out well for me.

made a copy of my Registry! Uninstalled the Nvidia Drivers and deleted the Nvidia folder, uninstalled Precision and did not keep the settings file it asked to save. Run - Regedit and looked for the above lines WildDog mentioned and found 2 instances, the "Info" and "Run" and deleted the lines.

Rebooted, Installed the Nvidia Beta Driver 195.39 followed by Precision 1.81 but not have Precision start automatic as this might conflict with the Nvidia Driver and give you the BSOD with the remarks "nvlddmkm.sys" as it was in my case. I now see my GPU and PCB temp.

Thank you WildDog, i can now get back to Folding and Gaming..

This solution was posted by Unwinder in the old forums:

That's an internal issue of all currently available 190.xx series.

Problem background:
Since 190.xx series NVIDIA driver's internal resource manager is trying to precache thermal sensors information in the registry during the first startup after installation. This mechanism doesn't seem to work fine yet, under some conditions sensor detection and precaching algorithm can fail and store incorrect sensor type information in the registry causing temperatures to disappear till the ForceWare re-installation.

Temporary solution:

Until the problem is not fixed by NVIDIA, there are still some temporary tricks allowing to solve it. First, you may just perform complete Foreware re-install, this will also cause precached thermal sensor information to be removed from the registry and to be re-detected by ForceWare on the next start. Second, you may manually remove corrupted thermal sensor information from the registry and this way cause the ForceWare to re-detect it on the next reboot. To do it open regedit then search and delete all instances of RmThermalProviderInfo and RmThermalProviderNum entries in the registry. Then reboot.

to search for both files, type "regedit" in start search on your start menu, when window opens click on find or Ctrl + F, paste both files you're looking for hit search and they will appear, delete both and reboot system

And let's hope that it won't take long time to fix it from NVIDIA side.
