Title: How to adjust refresh rates to low res modes?
Post by: Gradius on January 02, 2005, 07:35:18 am

Are you able to tweak low res modes to control refresh rate, size and position of the display, etc... with low res modes under windows, using the ArcadeVGA? I tried with Powerstrip, but it sais it's unable to handle those modes. Any alternative?

Use modes with doubled horizotal and vertical resolution.

you can also run dxdiag and on the last tab ( options i think ) you can ovveride the refresh for all modes ... i think nvidias control panel MAY overwrite that though.

common sense alert.....  I don't think nvidias control panel will be a problem considering the arcadevga is an ati card.  ;)

ok shows my knowlage .. thought arcadevga was software ...l either way the point is the same .. ATI's software may override the directx settings
