I just run the RivaTuner software. It'll detect what kind of nVidia graphics chip you have, and it will only show options that are valid for that graphics chip. There are several Web sites that have an in-depth explanation of how to use RivaTuner, just search for RivaTuner in Google. For the 6800 series it's also possible to do a BIOS upgrade. Everything, including the system BIOS, then will believe you've got a Quadro card. I didn't use the BIOS upgrade, so the startup screen still reports a 6800LE. I'm rather careful with BIOS updates, if they go wrong you have an unusable systeem or graphics card. Again, I don't know what can be done with a 5600.
