the new version of RivaTuner has been released,

New NVStrap v1.6 driver brings you more nice exclusive features:
* Now the NVStrap driver configuration tab contains "Allow enabling masked units" option, allowing the driver to force the graphics processor to activate all pixel / vertex units, even if they are hardware strapped as damaged. Please be extremely careful and use this option at your own risk. Enabling hardware masked units, which have not passed hardware quality testing, may cause unpredictable results and even permanently damage your graphics hardware.
* Improved "Custom graphics processor configuration" dialog layout. Now you may also see enabled/disabled state of each pixel/vertex unit in separate column. New "HW masked" column shows you which pixel / vertex units are hardware strapped as defected and protected from enabling by default by hardware mask to prevent system instability.
* Added NVStrap driver version tracking wizard. This module checks version of the currently installed NVStrap driver each time you open NVStrap configuration tab and offers you to replace outdated version with new one if you have not reinstalled the driver manually after upgrading RivaTuner version

* Added ForceWare 66.31, 66.29, 66.32, 66.51, 66.70, 66.72 and 66.81 drivers support
* Updated NVStrap antiprotection & ForceWareAntriprotector patch scripts and also Catalyst & ATIOverclockingAntiprotection patch scripts
* Greatly improved built-in patch script engine
* Improved NVIDIA VGA BIOS formats support
* Due to users' requests, unofficial support for integrated NVIDIA graphics processors is returned back
* Improved low-level graphics subsystem diagnostic report module
