    Great Program! I just installed this program and I am running a geoforce4 64mb. video card and this program took my refresh rate from 60htz to 85htz. There is an uninstall so that it doesn't work on your system you can get rid of it. Nice work.

    I found this program to be Excellent, doesn't need to be in the system tray, and totally unobtrusive. Well done! AAA+++

    This picks up where the new det drivers fall short.

    This is necessary, the new detonators might have an interface for resolution/refresh rates but it rarely (if ever) does anything in my experience. However, this utility is horrible, at least older versions. They would sqrew up my whole resolution table above 1280x1024 and required several reboots to fix it. I don't really want to go through that again.

    Perfect, does _exactly_ what it's suppose to do. And furthermore, it fixes the 1280x960x75hz refresh rate bug with the latest nVidia Detonator drivers, 41.09.
