    Arrow refresh rate lock?

     
    System:
    Intel Pentium III 733MHz
    512MB PC133 SDRAM
    Intel D815EEA MB
    Maxtor 40GB Diamond Plus HD
    Chaintech MX440 64MB 4x/8x
    Latest Nvidia drivers

    Where is the refresh rate Lock Feature? I cannot find it anywhere? Any games run and or 3DMARK 2K1 will default to 60Hz ....

    Isn't there a feature that will lock the refresh rate at 75Hz (monitor default 1024x768).?

    Thanks,
    Sweeper

    Check the Monitor tab on your Advanced Display Properties. You might need to find the monitor driver if 60hz is all that's availible.

    It has all the Hz that are available. It's at 75Hz on the desktop running windows but when you run games it jumps to 60Hz.... annoying. I thought the new drivers had a refresh rate lock in them somewhere so this wouldn't happen but can't find it.
