    of course Powerdesk fixes it the *proper* way (contrary to what this utility does), and has been for ages (since their first, publicly available, win2k driver?).

    On a different note:
    What I would like to know is how to get the Win2k/XP startup screen (with the scrollbar) at 75 Hz vs. 60 Hz default... I've googled on it a lot, but never found the solution.

    -only for single monitor rigs, no multi-monitor -
    It's supposed to work by changing the minimum available refresh rate to the one you want instead of the default 60 Hz, thus fooling the games.
    The same principal was used by NVRT (refresh tool for nVidia cards), only it was doing it at videocard drivers level instead of monitor driver.
    Don't know if it works, haven't tested it yet, though based on my previous experience with NVRT you might not be able to output on TV since your minimum available refresh rate will probably be above 50Hz.
