Default Post STICKY!!! - New Refreshrate tool from the maker of RefreshLock... RefreshForce

Many of us can attribute to the usefulness of RefreshLock. Heck, even the C/O drivers bundle it in, if that's not a testament to its usefulness, I don't know what is.

RefreshLock is a simple, small app that fixes the Windows 2K/XP refresh rate issue. The best part about it is that the changes it makes aren't permanent, so you don't have to worry about corrupting your registry.

Well RefreshForce takes things a step further to permanently fix the refresh rate issue.

Here's a quote from the main page:

Quote:
UNIVERALLY and PERMANENTLY fixes the Windows 2000/XP refresh rate problem
One-time execute and you're done. No background program running!
Functions perfectly with the Plug & Play monitor drivers (so NO need for manufacturer drivers!)
Works with ANY combination of game and graphics card, whether the card is nVidia, ATI, Matrox or any other, and whichever driver it is using!
Program does not require installation of any kind, so no messy setup programs
Support for systems with multiple display adapters
Automatic backup facility for added safety
Sophisticated and UNIQUE display optimization technology
Ability to actually lower refresh rates as well as increase them, if software causes display corruption
Download it here.

Works for Radeon cards. Greg does good work and always sets things up so you can uninstall. Give it a try.
