Coolbit and XP..anyone?

[Helpless]

Anyone using the coolbit registry hack with Windowx XP? I remember people having problems with win2K, so thought I would ask...and where can I find the key again?

 

[heng1028]

you can do a search from google and you will get it easily

I'm using coolbits in XP. You have to enter it manually the little file won't do it.

I am using coolbits in XP also, but I had no issues with it in 2000 either.

Ahhh, thanks...I used to file to automatically enter it into the registry

Hmmm, the file added the key to the registry, but still no tab like I always had...

I had no problems using Coolbits in Win2k Pro and I didn't even bother to install it when I moved over to WinXP Pro since I've mainly been using NVMax to oc and tweak my GF3 Ti500, but I just looked in my display properties and it looks like NVMax put in Coolbits for me.

Does the NVMax have a setting that allows you to set the monitor to 'optimal'? I am not sure what the highest refresh rate my NEC AccuSync 90 19" runs at, but I remember one of these tweaks adds an optimal setting to the drop-down box that has all the settings (60,70,72,75,100,etc...)..that's what I was looking for

 

[Smbu]

Do you mean this Accusync 90 monitor? If so then:



<< Resolutions Supported:
640 x 480 @ 60 to 160 Hz
800 x 600 @ 55 to 153 Hz
832 x 624 @ 55 to 144 Hz
1024 x 768 @ 55 to 120 Hz
1152 x 870 @ 55 to 105 Hz
1280 x 1024 @ 55 to 89 Hz
1600 x 1200 @ 55 to 76 Hz

Recommended Resolution: 1280 x 1024 @ 85 Hz >>



I don't know about the optimal setting. I just run everything at 85hz since I know my IBM P96 supports upto 1600x1200@85hz.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

VERY NICE Thanks! Yea, one of the tweak utiltites I had installed before changed the choices by adding an 'Optimal' selection...
