Refresh rate problem with monitor

I have a Viewsonic G90fb running on a 9600 Pro and have been using if for 2 weeks and am loving it. Today something happened so that i cannot raise my refresh rate of 60hz. When I do it through the display properties it says that it changes but when I go through the viesonic menu and check the view monitor it shows it at 60hz. i can lower it below 60hz but not above. I have reinstalled my videocard drivers and monitor drivers many times to no prevail. Anybody know what is wrong and how to fix it?
 
I have a philips 109B and a Radeon 9500 pro along time ago I had this problem and i eventually just started working again kinda weird.... anyways u jshould ust get a force refresh program works great. forces ur monirot to the highest refresh rate for the selected resolution. The program I use is called "reforce" run a search or PM and I can probably send it to you.
 
That might just be the limit of the monitor's refresh rate at the current resolution. See if you can get a higher rate at a lower resolution. Also, it would be a good idea to determine the monitor's actual refresh rate by enabling the v-sync (if not currently enabled) and using any piece of software (game, benchmark, etc.) that displays FPS. My monitor, which supposedly only does 60 FPS @ it's highest rez, actually does 62 FPS (with windows refresh rate set to "optimal"), woo-hoo!
 
this is a known problem with windows xp and ati's cards.

go to display properties, and select the settings tab, and click the advanced button. select the displays tab, and go from there (it's obvious)
 
I have a 9700 PRo, get riva tuner and you can create a driver file that runs the refresh rates y ou set.
 
USE DXDiag.EXE and look under the help tab and override the refreshrate by typeing in what ever refresh you monitor supports or what ever you want.I use to use a refresh fix,but why use a program that you all ready have in windows.
