60hz in fullscreen

Post #1by mike123 » 25.02.2004, 01:54

When I run Celesia in full screen, it uses 60hz instead of the 70hz my monitor is capable of.
How can I fix it?

It could be your video card settings and not celestia. Display properties ->settings -> advanced etc.

Well I can force 70hz using the card's control panel, but having such a feature in Celestia can be nice...

It's a bug in NVidia drivers... for a long time !

That's why I have an ATI now ! (not only that of course...)

Only NVidia can and have to solve the problem !

Some people suggested to use the NVrefreshtool to solve this under XP, but it seems that it only fixes refresh rates in DirectX software, not in OpenGL...

With my GeForce 3 NVRefresh Tool was working for both DX and OGL
