EDE Tech is on a distinguished road

Cool Fuzzy on the next step.

I am working on a small program it doesn't matter what programming language (I use them all). This is a utility for adjusting the Hardware Acceleration on the fly.

First, my program reads the registry in the HKLM and opens the key:
HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\VIDEO

Then it reads into a string variable: \Device\Video0

Close the Key and Read the new key to get the acceleration.level if it exists.

Then it displays the track bar in the appropriate position. (0 to 5)

Next the user can reset the bar and click ok and write the new Acceleration.Level to the registry. However there is one last step missing.

How do you refresh or restart the graphics card? I am thinking it would be under a service.

Let me see your brains! :happy:
