How to adjust refresh rates to low res modes?
« 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?

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
