This is my first open gl game i have installed on my new computer and I cannot stand playin at 60 hertz. How did you raise the refresh rates on a Ti4200 on winxp?

I think the nVidia drivers let you set the default refresh rate at different resolutions. The family computer is running the 44.03's and there's a panel in the nvidia applet that lets you set different refresh rates.

I believe that is only for D3D. It's Microsoft you see....they don't reallt support OpenGL... :)

You can always download PowerStrip, it always worked for me, especially on a dual monitor setup where one is an LCD and the other a CRT (where you need different refresh rates for both displays)

Use RivaTuner or RefreshForce to force your display to go to its highest settings at each resolution.

Don't use PowerStrip.

Because it's both memory-resident and because it can intefere with games in a negative way.

NVRefreshTool 2.1a .

NVRefreshTool is a utility used to fix the problem in Windows 2000/XP that sets your refresh rate to 60Hz when you play ANY game. This problem occurs whether or not you have a higher refresh rate set in your Display Properties of Windows.

NVRefreshTool is simple and easy to use. Just load up the NVRefreshTool program and it will automatically detect the maximum refresh rate at each resolution that your monitor supports. If you're an advanced user, you can customize each refresh rate at each resolution.
