[Mem]

Current Version: 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.This problem is not known to occur in Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, nor any version of Linux.

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.

Currently NVRefreshTool supports all Detonator versions.

If you use the Plug and Play Monitor Windows driver for your monitor, click here to learn more about the problems you may encounter.

Is this for D3D? If so then you don't need it as a tool like that is built into the Nvidia drivers.

If this is for OpenGL, then this is a good idea.

It does both,as you know in XP/2K it will default to 60Hz in gaming with OpenGL.Most users use a third party software like above so they can select the refresh rate they want.

I am just wondering, when you first install NVRefreshTool are the default values,
what the program thinks your monitor is safely capable of???

And do you have to run the program every time you enter windows in order for it to work, or once you changed the registory it will always be the refresh rate you set it at???

The default values are pretty safe,or you can set them yourself manually if you wish(that`s what I do),you only need to do it once and reboot,if you do upgrade your video drivers in the future ,just run the program again.
