Ruben, I believe that the Google Voice and Video Chat Plug-In triggers the NVIDIA card.
Normally, I enable the Advanced Attachment, the Sound Notifications features and turn on chat in Gmail. In addition, I actually haven't installed Google Voice and Video Chat Plug-In yet. Hence, I followed your advice to see which one might be the problem. [Case I] - No Google Voice and Video Chat Plug-In installed • Enable/disable Advanced attachment feature. • Enable/disable sound notifications. • Enable/disable Google Talk Window • Turn on/off chat in Gmail Doesn't cause the NVIDIA card active. ====== [Case II] - Install Google Voice and Video Chat Plug-In No matter the following settings are enable or disable, NVIDIA card will always be triggered once Mailplane launches. • Advanced attachment • sound notifications • turn on/off chat in Gmail • Google Talk Window By the way, if someone want to uninstall the Google Voice and Video Chat Plug-In, its own uninstall program is in /Library/Application Support/Google/.
