    XP Nvidia Refresh Rate

    Anyone know how to adjust the frame rate for open gl games in XP? The tweak util doesn't work anymore.

    What driver set are you using? You should be using at least 30.82 available at www.nvidia.com

    This is the refresh rate utility that I use, works fine with the 30.82 driver set. http://www.majorgeeks.com/article.php?sid=1457

    Thanks Mac but it still doesn't do what I want it to. It appears that the vertical refresh rate is locked in open gl games and I can't get above 60 fps no matter what. I get fantastic fps (65-125 @ 1600x1024x16bit color) if I turn off vertical sync. When it's on I'm can't get above 60. Oh well, I'll live with the 1600x1024 Blood can only spurt out of a guys neck in SOFII just so fast anyway.

    Refreshlock worked. Woohoo!! 100hz @ 1600x1200x16 = 100fps. Nice.
