Re: Easily increase your GPU MHash/s by 2 if you're running windows 7
Press windows key + R
Type in services.msc
Select desktop window manager and stop it, when you are done mining start it back up.

This didn't make much difference for me; I was getting 23-25 Mhash/s with it running, and around 24-25 without the window manager running. On an nvidia 9800gt if that's of any interest.
what card was it?
7600GT
$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G73 [GeForce 7600 GT] (rev a1)
I am now successfully running it on windows on my main box on my 9800GT via GUIMiner - although I am getting once cpu maxed out on poclbm.exe which doesn't seem right.
aha I have found the problem: my card does not appear in the compatibility list! https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_Hardware_Comparison

I have been reading a thread in a different topic (which I can't post to) but some guy has the same problem as me running the poclbm miner:

However am I right in thinking that this would only apply to ati graphics cards? I have an nvidia card and in that directory I have a file called nvidia.icd containing libcuda.so. Is this correct?

When you have this problem, you should check /etc/OpenCL/vendors/amdocl32.icd - this file should exist and contain the string "libamdocl32.so"
(for a 64-bit system, replace 32 with 64).
