Sad Serious Problem With 40.72 drivers LOOK

Lo guys over the last few days my system has been experencing a weird problem with my refresh rate on all versions of drivers.


I install say the 40.72 drivers test out my fps in game it comes to 60 the deflaut i install a refresh rate fix like the refresh lock 1.1 i go to play CS and i get 50 fps instead of the 100. This problem has only been happening in the last few days errr.

I have tried anything installing different drivers installing different refresh rate programs , installing all my games again. Ive treid everything i keep getting 50 fps in games when i should be getting 100.

My monitor does support 100fps in 1024v768 resolution.

Please can someone help me.

Sorry I didnt read all your message!

Your Bios setting may be affecting this, can you list what CPU/MB and the settings you have for them?

Suggestion

There are several setting in the bios that can affect the video cards performance.

Check the following

Graphics Aperture Size: Should be a minimum of 128MB for your card

AGP Capability: Should be at least 4X

Video Memory Cache Mode: should be set to AGP

The memory setting and CPU settings can also have an effect.

What is the operating system?

Do you have anything running in the background?
