detonator question

[CTho9305]

God I must be a moron or something. I have so many problems. Why can't I run @1024*768? Every other resolution works fine, EXCEPT the one I use all the time and for everything. The monitor either shuts itself off (acts like I shut down windows) or draws a really bad image (black bar across middle, flickery, way way way off center, messed up colors.

I tried completely removing all references to Asus and nVidia and installing standard PCI adapter driver. I even removed all evil registry keys. Any ideas? and this doesn't happen with Asus drivers but det's give me hundreds more 3dmarks.

I actually have monitor drivers that needed to be installed before I could get 1024x768. Maybe that is it?

I think the Dets try to set the refresh rate too high; get HZtool and set the rate to 60, or whatever the monitor can handle at that resolution.

Have you tried different versions detonators?

Go to a higher resolution. With the 6.35's I have been running Q3, Falcon 4.0, Halflife,NascarHeat,Q2 at the highest resolutions I can with out a studder, such as 1280x960 or 1280x1024.

so - I can get to 1024*768 using PowerStrip. but thats the only way I can find.

jeff7 - I agree, the dets are willing to go 85Hz @ 1280*1024, my monitor wont do that. and the monitor drivers didn't help get to 1024*768, but they did limit the refresh rate and added a few more resolutions.

my monitor does seem to do 85 Hz... no clue as to what the problem is. I'm at 1024*768 right now.
