  2. #Description: Configures NVIDIA HD Audio driver power save settings so that the driver is never put to sleep.
  3. #Version History:
  4. #1.0 [2019-07-25] - Initial Release
  5. #1.1 [2019-09-10] - Added better handling for cases where setting the values would fail. Also added instructions to run it in comments
  6. #1.2 [2019-09-28] - Fixed placement of $driverSet variable.
  7. #To run this file, follow these steps:
  8. #1. Save this paste to computer with a .ps1 extension. You can name it whatever you want, but keep the .ps1 extension.
  9. #2. Open a command prompt.
  10. #3. Type "powershell.exe -executionpolicy Bypass" without the quotes and hit enter
  11. #4. Type "cd C:\DIRECTORY\WHERE\YOU\SAVED\THE\FILE" and hit enter. If you saved it to Downloads, you could just type "cd $env:userprofile\Downloads" and hit enter
  12. #5. Type ".\NAMEOFSCRIPT.ps1" and hit enter. If you get a UAC prompt, you will need to hit Yes.
  13. #The script will notify you if it successfully changed the setting, if it failed, or if it couldn't find it at all.
  14.  
  15. Clear-Host
  16.  
  17. #Check to see if this is running as administrator, and if not provide a UAC message and relaunch script.

  21. Write-Host "I will relaunch the script. If you see a prompt from 'User Account Control' asking if you want to allow PowerShell to make changes, you must click 'Yes'."
  22. Pause
  23. Start-Process -FilePath PowerShell -Verb runas -ArgumentList "-File $($PSCommandPath) -ExecutionPolicy Bypass"
