    the screen went crazy. the box with the advanced setting finally came back up and with 60 hertz again. and right now there is some kind of install going on with a &quot;reading package&quot;.

    update driver help please

    according to your link jamie, the refresh should be 75 hz. i am curious how it got at 60 with no other settings being recommended. but thanks very much.

    update driver help please

    the refresh rate is 60 hertz. not sure what to change to as there are no options. also, i am guessing i still need to update those drivers. tyvm.
