    Apparently doesn't work with newer drivers.

    That sounds like quite a bug! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" />

    I'm guessing you're dealing with this on your own system?

I don't remember where I got them, but email me if you want a copy. I have been using them for about three weeks now without any problems.

    For those who want to know more about the refresh rate fix/problem that JungleMan is talking about, visit <a href="http://www.xp-refresh.net" target="_blank">www.xp-refresh.net</a> for more information.

    Man - I didn't even know about this problem

    I'm looking into the <a href="http://www.nvrt.net/" target="_blank">NVRefreshTool</a> as a possible workaround. It is said to work with current shipping drivers from nVidia.

    Any feedback on this?

    I hate 3rd party tools that should already be part of the original package
    I'll have to look into this one now that I've updated to Win2k...Thanks for pointing this out!
    ...I don't get it...
