Make sure to remove before inserting an ATI card, I didn't and I installed the ATI drivers over top of the NVIDIA ones. I later uninstalled NVIDIA in it's entirety. Unfortunatly nView is stuck in my control panel. I'd like to say NVIDIA software is crude in comparison to ATI. (hydravision rocks) If anyone knows a way to force remove it contact me.
   

It's part of the nVidia drivers. It's not dangerous, nor resource heavy. It gives multiple monitor options and other nView options (transparency on dragged windows and the taskbar), etc. Left click and select "nViewProperties" and you'll get a new window with options. That is what this is and controls. It's not dangerous.

I was having trouble with CAD software and did a little snooping around with Process Explorer. Turns out this nview.dll attaches itself to every process that has a dialog (any sort of windows-shell based GUI window). If nview.dll didn't agree with something in the dialog (i have no idea what that might be) it would cause the process to "freeze" and send the CPU usage to a constant 100%. I did as Matze said and changed the name of the file. Seems to have worked fine; I have not got any errors so far, either. Windows XP Pro SP 2 on a Toshiba Laptop. NVidia 6600 Go.

The file "nview.dll" should probably not be removed. The sluggishness mentioned by several is likely caused by "nwiz.exe," a startup application, which can be safely disabled by those without multiple monitors. Crashes after an install is likely caused by a corrupt download. Go to the computer manufacturer's web site (not the nVIDIA web site which has generic drivers, not ones perhaps modified specifically for your computer - as the nVIDIA site says, especially so for laptop users) to download and install the latest nVIDIA drivers.

this is used by nvidia's interactive desktop, this allows the desktop to do more modes with the monitor, keeps it running smooth between applications.if you find it slows your computer it may be due to the fact taht your computers video card is not set up correctly, please install the card with all of its software to make use of the cards full potential
