G400 refreshrate in Win2K

[RobAtUni]

Does anyone know how to manually change the refreshrate in Win2K?

I run 1152x864 at 100Hz in Win98 but I am only given the option of 75Hz in Win2K. Is there any way to change this? I am using ver5.03 driver.

I have an Iiyama VisionMaster Pro 400 and I guess that Win2k takes a look at its capabilities and tells me what refreshrates I can use.

Please can anyone help, I have a headache.

Nope, that´s a win2k limitation (no one really wonders why). Hopefully the next win2k drivers will give monitor costumization that´ll bypass win2k settings.

Yeah, I read that somewhere.
Does anyone know when the next release of the Win2K driver is due?
Or the MS certified driver?
Or a registry hack for Win2K?

I think you can download the latest version of PowerStrip and use it to adjust the refresh rates in Win2k. Let me see! Yeah! it works!! Just that I'd have to adjust my overscan to keep this setting, which I'll do later. But it does indeed work. Now I can't seem to find the link to Entech!?! :O Try this > www.entechtaiwan.com , I think I remember it correctly.

Wow, My first double post. And I don't even know how I did it! Maybe one of these days I'll have enough posts to make MURCer statis.

Many thanks for that advice.

Headache...cleared up.
