Hi, i have an old model: Sony 200ES

i am running it at 1280*960.

i don't know the MAX refresh rate for at this resolution.

If i check "hide mode that can't be displayed", then i only get 60hz.

but if i uncheck it, i have all the refresh rate from 60hz to 150hz.

I know my monitor won't support 150hz, but i select it anyways, oooo, it looks better than 60hz, but i am sure it is not 150hz.

now i want to know what is the max at this resolution, because there is a note saying it may damage the hardware if i use an unsupport mode.(which is kinda odd, if it doens't support how can i use it :confused: ???)
anyways, can anyone please find out for me.!

i can only find refresh rate at 1024*768 or 1280*1024 at sony.com

thanks

If you are runing XP, check if it installed a generic monitor or your specific one.

Also check to see you have driver installed for it, from sony's site. that will open up the new rates.
