I'm just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to which settings I should use for some of the OpenGL options in Nvidias Control Pannel. I'm currently using drivers 191.07 Thanks.

I use nHancer, a nice free utility that gives you a lot of options to control the various settings for nVidia cards. You can also set up individual profiles per program, or to force a profile to run as you like. You can download at the following site:
http://www.nhancer.com/
It would be up to a user to adjust the individual settings as they like according their their system's specs, graphic card and program you're wanting to use a profile for. So it's sometimes a hit-and-miss of what settings you find will work best for your system, but below is an example of settings I use in the profile for running Dolphin that seems to work well on my computer (If I don't mention an option here, then I leave it as being left Un-Checked or at its default):
Enhancements:
Anti-Aliasing: Multisampling + 16xQ
Check Enhance in-game AA setting.
Check Gamma Correction.
Check Anisostropic Filtering + 16x
Check Vertical Sync + Off
------------------------
Optimizations:
Check Texture Filtering + Performance.
Check Trilinear optimization + On.
Check Ansio. sample optimization + On.
Check Negative LOD BIAS + Allow
Check LOD BIAS, with a setting of "0.125"
Check Force DXT3 (OpenGL).
Check Prerender Limit, with a setting of "6".
---------------------
Compatibility:
Direct3D:
Check Anti-Aliasing compatibility + 80000000: AA & HDR.
Check Force Mip Maps + Trilinear.
Check High Dynamic Ranger (HDR) + Enabled.
Check CPU Multi Core Support + Multi Core.
Open GL:
Check OpenGL Support + 00002000: nVidia Demos.
Check Conformant texture clamp + Hardware.
Check OpenGL Control + Multithreading On.
Check OpenGL Multi Display Mode + Optimized for single display modes.
------------------------------------
You can play around with the various settings to see what seems to work best on your system.
Good luck!
