Does anyone know of a utility to force a refresh rate? I would like my lcd monitor to stay at 60Hz and not not flip back to 59.9Hz.
All this started when I upgraded to a newer nvidia video card (and drivers because the old drivers wouldn't recognize the newer video card).
Basically whenever I am watching a video or playing a game, my monitor flickers briefly and displays 60.0Hz. Soon as I stop playing the video or game, it flickers briefly and displays 59.9Hz.
Discovered that whenever something uses the video card for anything other than displaying the desktop/browsing, the refresh change flicker happens. Really annoying.
I have set the refresh rate to 60 under advanced settings of the display drivers but still flips back and forth based on the gpu usage.
Any ideas?
