DualView is ****ing me off
I have a CRT and an LCD hooked up to an 8800GT. Dualview is supposed to
allow each monitor to use its own setting for resolution and refresh rate. Resolution works as advertised but refresh rate only works sometimes. Half the time the CRT comes up during boot as 60hz when I set it to 85hz. This is on XP. Anyone know a fix?

I don't know much about these things but I also have a dual view and could
not live without UltraMon. They offer a lot more independent settings than the Nvidia Control Panel. . Have you tried UltraMon? R "Ichibod" wrote in message ...

Yes this is a pain. Apparently if you install the drivers when the existing
resolution is 60 Hz then that is what it will remain as. I used to be able to get 72Hz but like you I now only get 60Hz I fix for games can be found at www.pagehosting.co.uk/rl regards, "Ichibod" wrote in message ...

I used to be able to get 72Hz but like you I now only get 60Hz Thanks for the link. On my PC it is random, sometimes it boots up at what I set it to and other times at 60hz. I can still change it manually to a higher refresh rate though. It sounds like you are stuck at 60hz. Maybe it is because I am using P'n'P monitor .inf instead of the manufacturer's. Good to know this is a common issue and not due to my specific setup.
