more details.

Requirements:
- An x86/x64 CPU.
- A DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort monitor. CRT will not work.
- Microsoft(R) Windows 7. Both x86 and x64 should be supported. Tested on x64.
- Latest ATI Catalyst(tm) drivers.
- Microsoft(R) Visual C++ 2008 Runtime (x86), can be found here:
   http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b2da534-3e03-4391-8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf

   http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0856EACB-4362-4B0D-8EDD-AAB15C5E04F5

Note:
- If you have not checked "Enable GPU Scaling" in Catalyst Control Center, you must do so first.
- This program has only been tested on one machine (AMD Turion Ultra X2 laptop with HD 3200 IGP),
   so please don't hesitate to give positive constructive feedback!

Usage:
- Run the program.
- Select the desired GPU Scaling mode.
- Run your favorite 3D application (such as a game, etc).
- Enjoy. Please everyone submit tickets to the Catalyst crew feedback system!
- Please donate if you like this program and/or my other programs!
If you need any more information or help, click the "Help" button in the program. If that
is not helpful enough, feel free to post on the forums!

Hmmmm...interesting. If it's really due to a residual registry key, I'd guess using DDU might be a better option to "fix" it(at least temporarily). Since it deletes a lot of registry keys. Probably wouldn't be too terribly difficult to find the key and delete it manually either. It sounds to me like it might be an AppData file that needs deleted though. But I can't say for sure on that.

BTW...DO NOT click that link in the OP. You've been warned!
