Default ntune not showing overclock or performance options

I have a Dell Inspiron 531 with an Nvidia 8300 GS video card. I
downloaded the latest drivers and Ntune, but it does not enable any
additional options for overclocking. Please help.

Thanks

What do you see on the 'Adjust GPU Settings' page?
Core bus speed adjustment?
Memory bus speed adjustment?
A test button (which runs a useless test)?
GPU fan settings?

In my experience with the 8800 series nTune is a completely useless waste
of disk space. Some reported information is just plain wrong. The
stability test uses so little processing power that it is no indication of a
useful overclock. 'Tune System' is completely useless for two reasons - it
uses the 'Stability Test' (which barely stresses anything) and the process
is buggy.

nTune doesn't work any better for nVidia chipset motherboards.

Try ATITool instead.
