You might have to. When you installed your card, did you do it from the CD or did you let Windows install it for you? If you let Windows do it, you probably don't have the option.

With my NVidia 8400 GS, I have an executable called nvcplui.exe for my settings located in system32 (hold down the control key and R, and type that in the bar that comes up).

crappy OEM comptuers...
