Refresh Rate 1

[tequilaburner]

I recently updated all my video/windows drivers. I can't get a refresh rate above 60 hz on games. I've set the monitor to 85, run dxdiag and set the override to 85 hz, set the video card to 85 hz, and set the game to 85 hz. I know this is a windows issue and don't know an easy, reasonable way arround it. There are utilities that will fix this for you(nvrefresh fix) among others, but none work if you've updated drivers as I have.
One suggestion is to play around with the drivers is here:

but I"m not so sure I want to resort to that just yet. Any suggestions?

I had your problem bud. If you get SP1 it has a fix that will give you a 75Hz rate. Also get a program called "refreshforce". After that you're good to go. Note: You can skip the SP1 installation if you like. RefreshForce doesn't need it to work. I just advice it due to all the other fixes it includes.
