Frequency out of Range

[Will938]

No ideas guys? I've tried everything, what else is there?

use the override refresh rate thing. make it always 60Hz, and see if it works. it will be in display options>settings tab>advanced>and then the 7800GT tab. (i think)

How do you actually override and keep it there when a game starts? I found a tab to create a custom setting, display mode timing, ect.

hey, i read this tip on a program i use, because i have millenium and it always sends the wrong frequency to my secondary monitor. try this: http://www.download.com/PowerStrip/3000-2086_4-10395724.html?tag=lst-0-1 ok its a great program and will force the monitor to stay in the same mode no matter what. its pretty awsome.

o yea, i forgot to mention, its the actuall frogram with no features disabled, except you cant turn off the tip at start up, but thats a good thing, because those tips are really nifty

ok, I downloaded/ran the program and locked it on different resolutions/frequencies.

I ran SWAT 4 with it running and like this other times, this is what popped up.

640x480 @ 60Hz:
FH: 93.75 kHz
FV: 74.98 Hz

1280x720 @ 85Hz:
FH: 107.29 kHz
FV: 85.09 Hz

hey, i have the same problem.
i have latest drivers and everything.
i happened to my brother in First to Fight and Age of Empires.

 

[Will938]

First to fight was fixed when I downloaded the latest nvidia drivers AND left their toolbar up.

Ok I was going through dxdiag and did all the tests, it passed every one execept for 3D Direct 9. In that one the frequency was out of range. Does this help?

No problems found.
DirectDraw test results: All tests were successful.
Direct3D 7 test results: All tests were successful.
Direct3D 8 test results: All tests were successful.
Direct3D 9 test results: Failure at step 32 (User verification of Direct3D rendering): HRESULT = 0x00000000 (error code)
