Overriding Resolution


Recommended Posts

I was in a topic on some fourm for Stereo 3D and one of the suggestions for getting the refrest rate locked higher to play games was to edit a driver and make the lowest refresh rate for the resolution you game with at the highest refresh rate you could.

I'm pretty sure you could do that to lock the resolution, but I don't remember where the page is.

OK This only applies to the Nvidia 75.03 LDDM driver.

Go find the nv_LH.inf file from the driver folder (C:\Nvidia\WinVista\75.03 for me). Open it with Wordpad.

Find the line that contains:

HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "{338}SHV 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024 1600x1200 1920x1154 1920x1200=8032;"

then add 1280x960 to it, as follows:

HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_SZ_APPEND%, "{338}SHV 800x600 1024x768 1280x960 1280x1024 1600x1200 1920x1154 1920x1200=8032;"

and then add 1280x960x8,16,32

to line starting HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_MULTI_SZ%

like this:

HKR,, NV_Modes, %REG_MULTI_SZ%, "{*}S 720x480 720x576=1;320x200 320x240 400x300 480x360 512x384 640x400=F;SHV 1920x1200x32=1f;1600x1200x16=1D;640x480x8,16,32 800x600x8,16,32 1024x768x8,16,32 1280x960x8,16,32 1280x1024=3D; ... etc.

I guess this applies the same for other resolutions, haven't tried it tho. Make sure save a backup first in case anything screws up. Save it and run the setup.exe Good luck!
