Help Pls!! Refresh Rate = Unbootable Monitor
Reply
Posted 2004-12-19, 04:05 AM
A friend told me if I set the refresh rates in the settings from 60 to 100 that my games would run smoother... The only thing this did was make my monitor not boot up when I turn the computer on... Is anything damaged ? Or do I just have to change the rates back somehow without a monitor? And if so how do I do this.


Thanks

I figured out that my monitor is blown ... Now i'm using a 15 inch

A warning to you all .. DON'T MESS WITH REFRESH RATES !!!! Especially if you don't know what you are doing.

Best thing to do it keep the box that says 'Hide modes my monnitor cannot support' checked.

And choose the maximum it can support.

The maximum isn't always the optimum. For instance, my monitor goes up to 140, but it can only display that at 640x480

Did you try going into safe mode and changing the settings back?
