Check out the nVidia Refresh Rate Fix but it only works with Dets before 27.42 (it is free though).

Or you can pay and get Powerstrip which also has a lot of other features.

I recommend the free one as it is much easier to use (and free)

Either that or right MS and tell them to get off their lazy behinds and fix it as its them that broke it in the first place......how could they release this OS crippled like that

OR download refreshlock v2.01 it's free and it's locking your refresh rate at the rate you want
