Registry Hives

I am preparing for an interview. Did a research of possible questions for the interview and this is one of the random question I was able to locate.

What is the newest Registry hive in Windows?

I have read these, but really does not say. Hoping you can point me in right direction.

Windows 7 x64 not detecting GTX295

Background
I installed the 295 and it was not detected. So I downloaded 181.22 for Vista x64, but those drivers didn't work for gaming (CTD). So I installed a GTX 8800 and it was detected and drivers installed automatically from Windows Update.

Now I put the 295 back in, and it installed and was able to run games. However, the nVidia control panel was not available, suggesting that the drivers hadn't installed properly... So I deleted the drivers and rebooted. And... again it lists my 295 as a "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and a "3D Video Controler", but no drivers can be found by Windows Update.

Question
1) Is there anywhere I can download the Windows 7 x64 drivers and install them manually?

2) Any idea how I can get Windows 7 to recognize my GTX295 so that it can download the proper drivers.

3) Have you had the GTX295 install automatically in Windows 7 x64?

 

Windows 7 x64 - no RealTemp 3.60 GUI??

I upgraded my home computer (which I built) to Windows 7 x64.
Since then, RealTemp has been acting strange. Usually the GUI doesn't appear.
I can start several copies of RealTemp running (I see them in the Task Manager), but nothing appears onscreen. The temps don't appear on the right side of the taskbar.

Other times, I see an icon (but not a temp) on the taskbar (even though I have chosen the option to display it on the right side, not as a regular task), or sometimes on the right side, but still as an icon, not a temperature.

I have done the suggested removing of all "Winring" entries in the registry.

I have done the suggested running RealTemp as Administrator.

Nothing works.

This seems to happen randomly - sometimes it will work for awhile, then suddenly stop working. My firewall and antivirus software is not alerting me of it doing anything like this, so I don't suspect that.

Any clues as to running RealTemp in a Windows 7 x64 environment that would cause such problems?
