Be aware that NVidia used to have a large control panel/control suite called nView that was bundled with older versions of their drivers. They removed nView support for GeForce cards in the drivers starting several months ago, nView is for Quadro cards only now.

If you had older nVidia drivers on the system when you upgraded to 190.38, nView may have stayed behind, and it will cause problems with the latest drivers. My recommendation:

1. Remove your nVidia drivers.
2. Remove nView if it is listed in the Add/Remove programs control panel.
3. Do a search on the Windows directory for all nVidia-related DLLs, especially nvcuvid.dll, and delete if any are found.
4. Delete C:\Program Files\nVidia if present.
5. Remove all versions of DG's NV tools from your system, including any DGNV-related DLLs present in C:\Program Files\Avisynth\plugins (like DGDecode.dll)
6. Restart and reinstall nVidia drivers 190.38.
7. Download and unzip the latest DGNV Beta 7 from neuron's site.
8. Try your steps again.

If this does not work, I'm not sure where else to go. Many other people here are running DGNV Tools beta 7 under XP SP3, Vista 32, Vista 64, and Win 7 with no issues.

Edit: Just saw in the other thread that you discovered that your GeForce card may not have sufficient hardware support for the NV Tools. If this turns out to be the case, please disregard.
My GTX has nview installed without issues on XP SP3. I don't use the desktop management features though.
