Refresh rates in games

[Alec]

I overrode the dxdiag refresh rate to 75 Hz, but I always get 85 Hz, measured by my monitor´s OSD. In Open GL, too (Q3). What can I do?

What happens if you change the refresh rate in your Monitor Settings (in the Advanced section of your Desktop Settings)? I am assuming that you are using PowerDesk here.
