Troubleshooting Second Life changing clothes

Problem:
The sliders when I go into appearance to modify clothing does not work. i.e. Sleeves with not shorten or lengthen, Pants, collars. The sliders do not work at all in appearance making it impossible to modify designs.

Solution:
It looks likely that you have an NVIDIA graphics card with version 177 or 178 drivers.
There are known avatar rendering issues for these driver versions:
VWR-7957 (Clothing skinning error on nVidia)
VWR-9358 (Texture rendering problem Nvidia 178.13 release drivers)
VWR-8261 (With some clothes, viewer renders buttocks and legs totally white)

The following workaround has been reported:
Enable the Advanced Menu (Ctrl-Alt-D)
Disable rendering of Palletized Textures (Ctrl-Alt-F7, or Advanced/Rendering/Features/Palletized Textures)
Rebake (Ctrl-Alt-R)
